Despite its low fares and comically stingy baggage policy, something about flying with easyJet has always felt more dignified than a flight with say, Wizz Air or RyanAir, which often feel like a twisted psychological experiment or study on human behaviour.
easyJet flights are not swanky (I talk about this more under the Cons section), but compared to many other budget airlines, I would say their actual flights are MUCH less ridiculous than say, RyanAir which interrupts you every 2 minutes to sell scratch tickets or Wizz Air who likely powers their jets through chaos alone.
A recent update now even means the only bag you get is a small one that fits in the seat in front of you, which is bad news if you want to bring more than a few packs of gum and some spare undies. Be sure to double check the latest rules before you fly!
NOTE: A very recent change has meant that their baggage allowance is now even stingier than before! Be sure to read up on the latest rules accordingly as they appear to be changing frequently.
Easyjet has been getting worse ,quickly and irreparable I think. Virtually every flight is delayed, or worse cancelled these days. Just today my wife got to hear that her flight is overbooked and she cannot fly. I thought these kind of shinanegans were only happening in the US.
I found easyjet to be incompetent, and dishonest. They canceled two flights this year, at the last minute, and although they admitted it was their fault on both occasions, they still will not pay anything for the hundreds of pounds lost in expenses. You should avoid them like the plague. Valance Mclauchlin
Your honest easyJet review is a refreshing departure from the usual travel narratives. Your candid approach and thorough evaluation provide readers with valuable insights to consider when choosing a travel option. Kudos for shedding light on the travel experience in such an informative and engaging manner!
No compensation when they cancel. Minimal support as in phone a call centre which is closed or check your app that took over an hour to update. 12 hour delay and routed to alternate airport. No compensation!!
Avoid this so called airline!!!
Our trip was from Paris to Venice. We received a text message saying the flight has been postponed for 1 hour, making departure time 2.20 and not 1:20pm. Our arrival to be listed on our ticket being before12:20pm cut off was to have the bus from the city centre arrive late, 11:55am. We arriving at the check Easy Jet check in at 12:05pm was to be informed we were late for check in. The ticket said check in was to be before 12:20pm. The staff said join the line of 1 person waiting. This person had too much luggage that was over weight. They asked her to address this and in doing so walked off leaving us standing there for 18 minutes. We finally being asked to come forward was to then be informed we were 3 minutes late, 12.23pm. He then asking the manager was to then inform us we are to purchase another flight. We were not impress. Asking to speak with the manager was to be informed we arriving at the check in 3 minutes late makes no change in the decision in spite of the fact the take off time was delayed 1 hour. We discussed this point for nearly 50 minutes to be declined repeatedly. My asking his name was to be declined, resulting my taking his photograph. The manager then said he has as a result now banned us from flying again with Easy Jet. His staff then stepping in, was to ask we delete the photo and they will let us on another flight but a different airport. We considering walking away was then informed there are no other flights from Paris to Venice today. We deleting the photo had the manager indicate he will be calling the Police. I welcomed that. His staff stood in saying no to the manager, finally providing us another ticket at another airport in 3 hours. That cost us dearly. We finally arriving at Venice 8:30pm was to then have my wife and myself try to forget about the whole ordeal but seeing this web site, had me think otherwise.
