"easyJet is well equipped to deliver a successful summer across its network with the right number of crew," the carrier said.

Earlier this week the National Union of Civil Aviation Flight Personnel (SNPVAC) warned, in a statement, of the possibility of a "huge disruption" in the high season, due to the "weak organisation" in workers' schedules.

In the note, SNPVAC said that in recent months "it has alerted the company to the need for a more equitable distribution of stopovers", reporting on several 'emails' sent on the subject since October last year.

"At this stage, where the company is already facing disruption at the beginning of the IATA summer season, with several cancellations in the first week of April", SNPVAC said, "if there are no new hires, promotions to cabin managers, or planning to be eased" we predict "a huge disruption in the high summer season, and the operation could even be compromised".
