easyJet Group has confirmed it is consulting on proposed redundancies at its London Luton headquarters, with up to 50 positions potentially affected, or around 2% of its reported 2,300-strong head-office workforce. The airline said the proposals are intended to support its future business plans.

The proposed cuts are understood to be unrelated to Apollo Global Management's GBP5.7 billion pound (USD7.6 billion) takeover, which shareholders approved in a vote on November 11, 2026. In its August 6 takeover announcement, Apollo said it did not intend to make material group-wide headcount reductions for 12 months after completion, although some head-office functions associated with easyJet's stock market listing could be reduced following delisting.
