I wouldn't call them competitors any more. easyJet is a vastly, vastly higher quality operation, but has the higher fares to go with it. It's still a low-cost, and still has that sort of fares structure and its "rules" (e.g. *very* strictly one piece of hand luggage), but its competitors are far more likely to be BA etc than Ryanair, which has stuck with its "smaller airports, very low fares" approach.
