EasyJet CEO sees flying restarting with empty middle seats

LONDON, April 16 (Reuters) - The chief executive of easyJet
said when flying restarts after the coronavirus crisis
recedes planes are likely to operate with the middle seat empty
due to social distancing regulations.

He also told reporters on a call on Thursday that the
airline would stay cash positive in the event that its fleet was
forced to stay grounded for nine months, and should the
grounding last longer, it would be able to seek additional
funding.
