Easyjet goes up in my world!

9/5/2012

Just read this story on the BBC News site!
  
At last Easyjet is going to allocate seats to passengers on its flights. Halleluiah say I!

I have just flown Easyjet (in fact I only wrote about the airline yesterday) to and from Barcelona with my family and my biggest gripe about the whole experience was the chaos over seat finding.

With young children, it is pretty important to end up with seats together; if your kids are over five though, you, and they, would end up in the general free for all at the departure gate (until today’s announcement)!

My daughter turned five in June!  

My experience in August is that people behave badly and show their worst traits when it comes to the rush for seats. My wife and kids barged out of the way by over-eager passengers and all manner of pushing-in and queue jumping. That treatment doesn’t bring out the best in me and I will/did react badly to it! 

I am sure that Easyjet would rather avoid its passengers arguing with each other before a flight is even boarded!  
 
At Luton Airport on the 19th August, stood up in the hot holding pen at the departure gate for over an hour, I made an observation to Mrs Baldwin that travelling by Virgin Rail was EASIER and more organised and comfortable (with particular reference to seating) – and this was not a great reflection on the orange airline. 
 
Next time we fly though – maybe it will all be a lot better!
