EasyJet agreed in principle to a takeover offer of more than £5 billion from Castlelake. The move comes as the airline faces soaring jet fuel prices and suppressed demand after the Iran war, making the offer a potential relief for a pressured balance sheet. In-principle terms suggest upside for EasyJet shareholders, though deal certainty remains to be seen.
