Easyjet is one of the more established budget airlines. The offer a no-frills (no ticket, no allocated seat, no free food, drinks or goodies) flight with all the same safety regulations that the regular carriers provide.

For a recent trip to Budapest, Ryanair could not help, so we looked on the Easyjet website. BOOKING ONLINE The ... Read review

Advantages: Very cheap, great planes.
Disadvantages: Staff can be hit-or-miss in terms of friendliness

...I booked a flight with EasyJet from Belfast to Amsterdam, arrived at 7:30 on the dot to check in, and sat in the departure lounge eagerly awaiting my call to board. It never came. EasyJet had cancelled my flight, without any announcement as I sat in ignorant bliss in departures with priority boarding card number 3. Needless to say when Cancelled eventually appeared on the screen, all the seats on the next available flights had been taken by the people ... Read review

...Jet2.com and the return with Easyjet as that seemed to be the most cost effective way, until we realised that Jet2 only offered one flight to Paris a day and if the flight got cancelled it would severly impact our holiday so we opted for Easyjet as the offered more than one flight a day departing from Liverpool. *~*About Easyjet*~* Easyjet was founded by Sir Helios Haji-Ionnou in 1995.

According to ... Read review

Advantages: cheap and cheerful
Disadvantages: bright orange!!!!

...here's my review of the Easyjet flights to follow up from the review of the easyjet.com booking process. Arriving at your airport all you need to do is turn up at the check-in desk with your ID and attempt to smile at the person behind the desk, but at 5.35 am after having been driving for an hour and almost being late due to the queue at the check-in for your car parking that is a challenge. So skipping the journey and service at the car park ... Read review

Easyjet are a company that sell really cheap flights direct to the public, and they have a large and growing network.

I recently used the easyJet service for the first time, and I was so impressed and pleased with the majority of the experience, hence my need to inform you about them. The easyJet company is part of the easy group of companies. You’ll recognise an easy company by its excessive use of the colour Orange. Perhaps the most well known is the budget airline that I’ll talk more about in a mo. The other areas of the easy group currently encompass ... Read review

Advantages: cheap
Disadvantages: punctuality, no frills

I fly very often EasyJet :it is the only 'cheap' airline that goes to Madrid and my family is over there. Before, there was Go, but usually came out more expensive. It is clear I do it for money rather than love but also because booking is so easy and quick. It happens that I find myself sometimes with a few days off at the last minute and not lots of money in my pocket neither the time to look properly for a flight. Then I got 2 options ... Read review
