Easyjet from LPL is a non starter. Their flights leave too early for an IOM connection and arrive too late for the onward flight to IOM.
They do have some better times at a higher price level, but they were expensive – about £2 or £3 less than the cost of flying BA or Iberia from MAN or LGW. I didn’t think it was worth doing at such high prices.
I note the comments about booking by phone rather than online. My reaction is threefold:
1. It’s a hassle and seems a backwards step.
2. It’s expensive.
3. Much as I like airports, I like my fiance more! I don’t want to eat into valuable holiday time messing around with travelling to the airport just to get a ticket.
Frankly I much prefer BA to Easyjet. But if BA don’t find me worthy of custom (by refusing to sell me a ticket) they can get stuffed. My attitude towards them is not helped by the dreadful LGW-IOM “service” they have.
They have to realise that I am not forced to spend my cash with BA. I do have other options and I intend to avoid BA from now on. Starting with the tickets I booked this evening to Melbourne, with Emirates! I also paid off the balance of my BA American Express credit card and have cut it up!
