easyjet are EZY. For some reason two airlines have EZ: SunAir of Denmark and Evergreen, the US cargo carrier. I suspect it the flight was operated by the later. I seem to remember Evergreen being associated with transporting military hardware to Israel during the recent spat with Lebanon. Those flights stopped off at PIK and were subject to attempted "attack" by the anti-war brigade.
