easyJet

easyJet have come to dominate the European LCC scene, helped by early UK regulatory liberalisation and the successful takeover and integration of Go.

Project background

easyJet are one of the leading low cost airlines in the UK and Europe and indeed the world. In July 2002, easyJet acquired Go Fly Ltd to become Europe’s biggest LCC.

A number of Mango people were former employees of Go Fly Ltd and joined the new combine where they carried out various key roles, leading to the eventual successful integration of Go and supporting an airline that doubled in size.

easyJet subsequently engaged Mango personnel to restructure their credit card arrangements.
