report, commissioned by the Strategic Rail Authority
in 2004: “HSL (High Speed Line) is potentially more
damaging than other rail-based schemes, but is likely
to be better than a road investment programme. The
environmental case for HSL vs air travel is unproven”8.
Comparison with road
According to the Stern Review, transport accounts
for 14% of global greenhouse gas emissions, three
quarters of these emissions are from road transport,
while aviation accounts for around one eighth and
rail and shipping make up the remainder of
transport emissions.9
The European Environment Agency estimates that
the average specific CO2 emissions of the total EU15
passenger car fleet were 164g per kilometre in 2003.
Its estimate for average car occupancy is 1.6 passengers.
This equates to 102.5g of CO2 per passenger kilometre,
or 7.2% more than easyJet’s average.
The EU’s key instrument for reducing emissions from
passenger cars is the Voluntary Commitment agreed
by the European, Japanese and Korean car industries
to reduce average CO2 emissions from new passenger
cars; a target of 140g/km for 2008 in the EU and 2009 in
Japan and Korea has been set10. The EU’s aim is to reach,
by 2012, an average CO2 emission figure of 120g/km for
all new passenger cars marketed in the Union”.
2. easyJet strives to be efficient
on the ground
A. Short dwell time on ramp – quick turns
easyJet’s business model is designed to achieve high
aircraft utilisation. Key to this is minimising the
turnaround time (measured as the time between
the aircraft arriving at the gate and pushing back for
departure). easyJet’s benchmark turnaround time
is 25 minutes and, where possible, easyJet turn the
aircraft around in 20 minutes. During a turnaround,
the crew secure and prepare the aircraft for the next
flight before boarding passengers and their baggage.
This process includes safety checks, cleaning the aircraft
cabin and in most cases refuelling.
By operating to this standard, to service the same
number of passengers through the day, easyJet requires
fewer gates and other airport infrastructure than full
service airlines.
B. Minimal use of ground equipment
easyJet’s policy is to use the most efficient and simple
ground equipment in order to facilitate our 20 minute
turnaround time. As such easyJet prefers, where
possible, not to use air bridges. easyJet also prefers not
to use motorised steps. easyJet cabin crew clean the
cabin interior; a full service airline will require a separate
cleaning crew to be delivered at each turnaround.
C. Simple airport infrastructure
easyJet has simple airport infrastructure requirements.
As a short-haul point-to-point airline with one class of
service and no cargo offering, easyJet has no need for
segregated check-in areas or for complex baggage
handling systems and facilities to transfer passengers
between flights.
Wherever possible, easyJet works with airports to
adapt and develop existing facilities efficiently to
minimise airport capital expenditure, and reduce
environmental impact. easyJet has launched an online
check-in product, which helps reduce the need for
expensive airport infrastructure.

D. easyJet keep surface journeys to a minimum
easyJet prefers to use local, convenient airports
connected to good public transport links. As part
of our airport selection process, easyJet assesses the
convenience of an airport with respect to surface
transport options.
According to latest census data, 44% of people within
the EU live within a 60 minute local journey of an
easyJet airport. easyJet analyses address data supplied
by customers when they book, in order to draw
conclusions about how far customers are travelling to
their departure airport. Where a particular destination
appears to be drawing customers from a very wide
field, easyJet will actively look to serve that destination
from multiple departure airports.
Example: in easyJet’s 2006 summer schedule, half of
the daily departures at easyJet’s three London airports
(Gatwick, Luton and Stansted) were to destinations
served from all three airports, allowing customers
