RE: easyjet Cabin Crew
I do know how good Brittania were displayed on their “Airline” series but easyJet arn’t exactly the worst airline to be on time. Far from it but there are also things when the camera wasn’t there. For instance, Aldergrove (EGAA/BFS) gave us a slot at 0720 yesterday morning as we had to cancel our 0700 slot because easyJet flew a cabin crew member (by himself) out on a turboprop from Luton because they were one short (he enjoyed my copy of Airliner World as he read it on finals!) of one cabin crew member. This therefore delayed us but not easyjet’s fault because the cabin crew member in Belfast had fallen ill.
We therefore boarded with no rush but as we were boarding we were told by the captain that ATC, which was ture as i was listening on my scanner, had moved the slot from 0720 to 0710 and at that time it was 0705 so we didnt exactly have time to load up. THe captin, in a fustrated tone, asked us to sit down as if we missed this slot the next one was over an hour away! We departed and taxied. Usualyl you are asked to stop at Run. 25 Hold but we just taxied onto runway and took off without stopping to line up!!
I am not saying that this would happen on all easyjet flights but I am saying easyJet seem to be getting abuse for being late when, at least sometimes, it is other peoples fault; ATC being nasty, Passengers missing e.t.c .
Can you gues not give them a break I mean it aint like Ryan Air, Go, bmi, Virgin are all on time and are all better than easyjet. If you saw a show about Go the only thing that would be different is that you get a seat and dont pick your own. Ryan Air I say would be the same as easyJet, and all airliners like SN Brussels, Virgin Atlantic, British Airways and bmi would be like Go except you get a meal!
Come on give easyJet a break I mean as i said the management aint right in the head but they are (after october) gonna be the biggest no-frills airline in Europe followed by Ryan Air.
Also, if Ryan Air were on it you would see the same abmounth of grumpy passengers as thats what people want to watch not everything going smoothly! Ryan Air have less people to blame ad they do bagage handling etc themselves I am told by an airport employee so if ur bag dissappears and they blame it on the airport services you know they are lying to you!
COME ON, GIVE EASYJET A BREAK
