easyJet (LON:EZJ) said its first-half performance for the period ended March 31, 2026, was in line with expectations and consistent with its April trading statement, while management emphasized that the airline is managing near-term geopolitical and fuel volatility from what it described as a strong balance-sheet position.
Presenting the results, Kenton said the airline saw “a very limited impact from the Middle East in terms of trading,” but noted that volatile fuel pricing in March added GBP 25 million of cost. He also acknowledged that winter losses remain above where the company had planned when it set its 2023 targets, saying reducing seasonal losses remains a structural focus.
