For those of you interested, I found this analysis of why (according to some consultants in the U.K.) EasyJet should consider adding the CSeries to its all-Airbus fleet. The numbers presented are pretty interesting and the crux is that when it competes head-to-head with lower cost operators like Ryanair and Wizzair, EasyJet loses. So, it should consider adding an airplane like the CS100 which can operate into airports where larger airplanes like the 737-800 or A320 cannot operate - and thus no competition and higher margins.... That is why the idea that you could conceivably use a CS100 on routes between HPN and BUR or between CHS and LAX makes sense - less direct competition and higher margins with the increased fuel efficiency. Here's the article - the analysis is probably sponsored by Bombardier :

I thought the analysis was interesting (others may disagree). Even competing directly against larger airplanes in the US, the CSeries will be more efficient on a CASM basis AND it will be waaaay more ergonomic than current 737s and A320s as can be seen on this video:
