VIE-LGW. Price, once you added all the extras like baggage, and getting from the airport into
London, meant that a BA flight was actually cheaper, but this flight left 2 hours later so
gave us more time in Vienna. Got to checkin to early, before it opened, one person in the
queue already. Went had dinner and when we came back 15 mins before opening there were about
50 people waiting. Check-in opened on time. Went to gate before that opened. Previous flight
still at gate. People sat near the gate jet bridge doorway were asked to move back to allow
speedy boarders to go on first. When they stood up, everyone lunged for the door and formed a
scrum to get on. Managed to get the exit rows which looked like the crew keep free until
abled bodied people came on. Plane clean. Turned out it was on its maiden flight, hence why
there were delays leaving Gatwick. This also led to delays to us leaving Vienna according the
pilot. Crew were fine, but spent the flight selling various products. Late landing into LGW
and had to go down stairs off plane and across tarmac. For all the extras low cost airlines
require, I wouldn't rush to use them again.

First real experience of easyJet. LGW to Murcia return. 1.25 hours queue at LGW for Bag Drop.
Passengers who joined main check in queue at same time as we joined bag drop queue were served
before us! Clearly it is a disadvantage to use online check in so don't. At Murcia there was
no Bag Drop so you had to use main check in. Why won't easyJet behave like a normal airline
and allocate seats? The dash for seats really puts me off. Speedy Boarding seems just a rip
off - on their own admission it doesn't guarantee you'll board any sooner. On the positive,
once on board the flight was good, cabin crew friendly and on board catering not excessively
expensive. But the wait for check in and the silly seating arrangement really put me off. Not
minded to use them again.

London Stansted to Belfast return. A 9am Sunday morning departure was very smooth. No
queues, no scrum to get on board (despite a full load), spotless A320, prompt departure and
arrival about 25 minutes early. The seat pitch was okay. the Saturday afternoon return was
not very well organised for boarding - 25 minutes late. Apart from that everything was as you
would expect. Quite a long way to walk at Stansted, but luggage arrived in short time.

GLA-STN. Easy jet gate staff have gone from Glasgow so another Easy airport where there are
no EasyJet staff with authority to respond to customer issues such as cancellations. However
on this case there were no issues. On time flight, well groomed and helpful cabin crew.
Unfortunately I am one of many business travellers who have had to almost totally desert
Easyjet to BA because of their unreliability this year. "Business travel transformed" they say
on their website. True - but not in the right direction.

Flew NCE to BSL 12 August. Originally scheduled to depart at 1605hrs, but received an email
advising flight has changed schedule to depart at 1735hrs. Upon arriving at airport, checked
in and once through the security check-point, found the flight delayed with no time given. In
summary, the flight was delayed 4-hours, no notice was given at check-in, no announcements
made in the Departures hall, and no representation whatsoever in Nice, nor on arrival in
Basel. A forced overnight with an expensive hotel bill, I will never fly with Easyjet again
with that disgraceful lack of service.

Gatwick to Mahon return. We purchased speedy boarding which was great. We were one of the
first people to be seated on the aircraft and to check in our luggage. Would pay for this
service again. The staff were very helpful and friendly. Both flights were on time.

Lisbon to Geneva on 17 August cancelled: the next flight they offer is 5 days later! I ask for
alternative destinations, and they put me on the last flight to Paris that evening, which
arrives 2 hours late at 1 am. They arrange a hotel and meet me off the flight. The people at
Lisbon said that their customer service people in the UK would arrange reimbursement for the
costs of getting back to Geneva. Next morning, I pay for the train down to Geneva, when I get
home I call their customer service people who say no problem, scan all the receipts and send
them to us. So, I do that, and very quickly get a reply: no refund. So, beware: unless you are
prepared to wait 5 days for the next available flight, pay a bit more money and fly with a
real airline.

Berlin-Bristol-Berlin. Outbound flight was 1 hour and 50 minutes late taking off. The captain
apologised but offered no reason for the delay. Tired cabin crew managed to smile, but service
was perfunctory. Return flight was 1 hour and 15 minutes late. The reason given for the delay
by the captain was the need to find a replacement for a member of the scheduled cabin crew who
was ill. This has become a typical experience for me and my friends and colleagues when flying
with easyJet. I would not recommend flying with them unless your travel plans have a lot of
slack built in.

London Gatwick to Pisa . About as hassle-free as anything at Gatwick can ever be. Flight more-
or-less on time. Only about half of the food options were available. Overall, no complaints. A
pretty uneventful flight - which is what I wanted!

Due to fly home from Geneva on 14th August. Flight due to takeoff at 1620. Told to go to gate
about 1645. The person on the Gate checked passports and boarding passes "to speed things
up!". About an hour later told the flight was cancelled. Didn't know where to go, no-one
helped - managed to find the Easy Jet desk eventually. Queued over an hour and told her that
as I have epilepsy, I had enough medication for 1 day so had to be home ASAP. Booked me onto a
flight to Gatwick the following day at 1715. Sent to hotel with everyone else. Was worried
that the next day's flight would be cancelled so went early to the airport and bought a ticket
from Swiss at £230, which took me to Heathrow. The flight I was due to be on was also
cancelled. I feel sorry for all the people who were rebooked on that flight. Do not ever book
with EasyJet.

Milan Malpensa-London Gatwick. Despite the crowded gate at Malpensa and the marshalling lanes
that resemble cattle pens, the flight was on time. Friendly, efficient crew - and no hard sell
of duty free etc. When Easyjet works, it works well. Shame it's not able to offer a consistent
product.

Booked Speedy Boarding both ways to Tenerife. Homeward flight we were the first to board after
one couple with a wheel chair. When we boarded the woman was sitting in the row by the door
centre seat and the man was the other side of the aisle sitting in the centre seat. We were
going to sit down and the woman said they were taken by children who had yet to board - when
we queried it with the cabin crew they asked the woman would the others be long behind her!
She said no, and we were informed by a crew person to look for other seats further down the
plane. I mentioned it to the other flight attendant and he said people do save seats, but
shrugged his shoulders as if it to say "nothing can be done". We saw the group of people when
we were came off the plane and the children were teenagers! Speedy boarding is a joke with
EasyJet and I would never pay it again as I felt I was throwing my money away, this is not the
first time it has happened. The plane was dirty and the general apathy over this matter with
the crew just annoyed us. If you don't pay for the 'privilege' of Speedy Boarding, then you
should sit were you can, and people shouldn't be allowed to save seats for the ones who
haven't paid!

I can put up with delays - we were delayed outbound London Gatwick to Malaga and the same on
return - however the farce over easyjet not being able to unload baggage during the night was
not acceptable. This meant much unease at the baggage reclaim as about seven flights of
easyjet travellers waited at least several hours for their hold luggage. This is poor customer
service and the baggage handling company appeared keen to point out it was not a result of a
dispute between the airport and baggage handling company. A manager arrived (not easyjet) who
announced that delays were due to unforeseen circumstances - despite the fact that the flights
left their originating airports up to four hours before arriving at Gatwick.
