easyJet

I've flown Easyjet several times over the last 2 or 3 years, and I have to say they have never disappointed me. Starting from the booking process online, it's all very simply laid out, without any hidden charges. I like to have a choice of flying from Gatwick, Luton or Stansted on certain routes as well. Last time I booked a flight, I checked in online, which is also very simple, you just print out your boarding pass at home, and no queueing at the airport! I made a stupid mistake of giving myself the title "Miss" on the booking form, without realising. I thought they would charge me to change this, but all it took was a quick phone call ...  Read the complete review

I have recently returned from my annual summer holiday with the family. We booked it all ourself and decided to fly easyjet as the prices were the cheapest we could find. We were very dubious about what to expect on the no frills flight and following watching the TV programme Airline. To be honest we were very pleasantly surprised. On the outward journey check in opened early so we managed to check in without queues. The staff were not the happiest of staff but they checked us in quickly and effeciently. I was then worried about the plane being late but no it was right on time which was just brilliant. I ...  Read the complete review

This year in june we went to Spain using easy jet. This was the first time I had been on easy jet and is going to be the last time. This was our first holiday with our 5 month old baby. We paid extra for priority boarding to avoid queues especially when we were going to take pushchair along with us. But when we reached through the security to boarding gates, it was terrible. One, the flight was delayed by half an hour. Second, once the boarding opened there was nothing like priority boarding at all!!! Everyone was going altogether. On top of that, once we passed the boarding gate we had to go via steps to reach to the plane! Now, did easy jet ...  Read the complete review

Having never flown with a budget airline until I flew with EasyJet earlier this year, I knew it was coming but I didn't know what to expect. We were flying to Fargo, in Portugal which was a four hour flight each way. We had booked a villa and were told EasyJet were transporting us there. The baggage allowance was 20kg's per person and only one small piece of hand luggage was allowed in board. To be honest, both on the outward and return journey, EasyJet were more than helpful in this respect and grouped us together so basically, 5 persons meant 100kg's which I though was fantastic. As it alleiviated the worry about overpacking on the return ...  Read the complete review

I have to say I fly budget airlines all the time but I would much rather fly with someone where I am guaranteed to get a seat or where I don't have to pay for everything on board. However I also like to go on holiday a lot - sometimes 4-5 times a year to Europe and the only way I can afford this is flying with someone like Easyjet. Easyjet have their good points and bad points - like most airlines really. I have only been flying with them for about 3 years - before then I was actually using BA a lot for short European flights - not now though since it's cheaper to get a return BA flight to New York than it is to Spain or Portugal. Ridiculous ...  Read the complete review
