Answer 1

Borrowing their business model from American air carrier Southwest, easyJet and its Republic of Ireland-based rival Ryanair are by far the largest low cost airlines in Europe, and the rivalry between them is intense (especially on Ryanair's side from its high profile chief executive Michael O'Leary). The two companies have slightly different strategies. easyJet flies mainly to leading airports while Ryanair uses far more secondary airports to reduce costs. easyJet places more focus on attracting business travellers as well as leisure travellers, although all its aircraft have single-class cabins.
Ryanair has been criticised for using aggressive advertising techniques to inform consumers of their low fares. The Irish airline claims to be 50% cheaper than easyJet, despite their fees and taxes often being much higher than those of their rival. Furthermore, Ryanair often flies to secondary airports which are further from the customer's intended destination, while easyJet typically serves primary airports - the combination of these two factors can make flying with Ryanair much more expensive than easyJet.[2] The higher degree of congestion at major airports, and Ryanair's apparent practice of building additional "leeway" into the scheduled duration of flights, means that easyJet's punctuality is lower than Ryanair's.

Answer 2

All of those things, but I would also look at the owners and their background as that will tell you a lot about how and why the companies were formed and a lot about the long term aims and goals of the companies.
