EasyJet goes after Chinese travelers

Dec 03, 2013
LONDON, England - EasyJet will hope to cash in on the growth of Chinese outbound travel with a new dedicated Chinese homepage.

The low-cost carrier has launched a website with simplified Chinese information about the airline and an ‘Inspire Me’ tool where they can find destination information.

Bookings will be connected through a Chinese version of Booking.com.

In addition the airline has signed up onto VisitBritain’s Welcome Charter, with its efforts amidst a rise in Chinese taking easyJet flights.

“This year easyJet has seen a 25% increase in bookings from China versus 2012. Along with the other BRIC economies, the demand from Chinese customers is predicted to continue to grow over the coming years which means that, with a dedicated homepage, easyJet is ideally positioned to capture more of the market of the millions of Chinese who are travelling to and within Europe every year,” said easyJet’s chief executive Carolyn McCall.

“I am delighted to also announce that easyJet is signing up to VisitBritain’s China Welcome Charter, the aim of which is for businesses in the UK to ensure that by 2015 the UK is the most welcoming destination in Europe,” she added.

Its announcement comes as Prime Minister David Cameron embarks on a trade visit to China with 130 business delegates.

Speaking about the China Welcome Charter, Cameron said: “This government’s priority is to secure the economic recovery and we are determined to all we can to help British companies to succeed. I am firmly committed to playing my part which is why I have taken more than 130 business delegates to China. My aim is to open the door for them in this fast-growing market, creating opportunities for them to expand their business.”

EasyJet hits record after Goldman rethink

By Bryce Elder

In the three years since Goldman Sachs removed EasyJet from its “buy” list, the stock has gained 213 per cent. Yesterday, after a change of lead analyst, it was added back.

Goldman forecast EasyJet to return £1.5bn to shareholders between 2016 and 2018.
High quality global journalism requires investment.

While fare growth was likely to stall, network expansion and cost savings could still deliver annual earnings growth of around 11 per cent, the broker argued.

“We believe EasyJet will continue to capitalise on significant growth opportunities in the European short-haul market as legacy carriers further restructure their inefficient cost bases,” said analyst Alexia Dogani, who was poached by Goldman in July from Liberum Capital.

“Any potential Alitalia network restructuring would also offer a growth opportunity as EasyJet has the largest overlap on its short-haul network.”

Goldman had a £19.60 target on EasyJet

Going well today .

Yep lovely.

EasyJet upgraded by Credit Suisse
13th January 2014, 15:36

Analysts at Credit Suisse have upgraded their recommendation on airline carrier EasyJet [LON:EZJ] to ‘outperform’ from ‘neutral’ believing the market has yet to price in, what they calculate to be, a 43 per cent growth in earnings and a 23 per cent increase in cashflow over the next three years.

The broker has upped its price target by 31 per cent to 1,988 pence per share (previously 1,518 pence) which implies a potential total shareholder return of around 26 per cent.

“While EZJ has performed strongly in recent years, we view it as a multi-year margin accretion story, and accordingly see an attractive multi-year value proposition,” the broker said.

“We view margin build-out as key to the easyJet investment case, and our analysis of both volume and pricing opportunities open to EZJ suggests the current stock price implies low market expectations for future margin appreciation for current peak levels.”

The shares of EasyJet have almost doubled in the past twelve months and are up by 33 per cent in the last three months.

At 3:32pm: EasyJet share price was up 44.5 pence at 1,693.5 pence
