Check in Times and Problems at EasyJet

Many low cost or budget carriers run a strict check in system at all of their departure points. What that means is that if you arrive at the check in counter outside of their designated time schedule, they may deny you travel. This refusal can be even if the flight is still a long way from departing.

Check in times can vary depending on the type of flight you are taking. It is important to check the conditions of your ticket a few days before your scheduled departure. And if you want to ensure you can catch your flight, make sure you are at check in well before the advised time.

Review - Flight Cancellations on EasyJet

All airlines cancel flights from time to time. Cancellations are frustrating and costly to the passenger, meaning that arrangements have to be changed at the last minute, for such things as hotels, tours and meetings.

But it is unclear sometimes why flights are cancelled. Sometimes planes are cancelled due to such things as mechanical failure, airport delay and/or closure and bad weather. Sometimes flights are cancelled well in advance of the scheduled departure.

Lost or Delayed Baggage Luggage on EasyJet

Every airline in the world has lost or delayed a piece of passenger luggage. All passengers should understand that there is a small chance that their baggage will be mislaid, lost or stolen.

However, it is how airlines such as Easy Jet deals with the lost, misplaced, delayed or stolen luggage that is the biggest issue. The one thing most passengers want is to be reunited with their possessions as quickly as possible. Particularly when they have arrived at their first destination.

However, if they cant get their baggage quickly, passengers expect that an airline will do all they can to retrieve the item, and keep the passenger informed of the search. And it stands to reason that people will want some form of compensation for the loss or delay, if only a small amount to purchase essential items.

Review - Service of Flight Attendants at EasyJet

There may be a difference in the priorities of flight attendants between major carriers and low cost carriers.

On major carriers, like Singapore Airlines and Malaysia Airlines, flight attendants or the flight crew are there to provide a service, free of charge. That may mean bringing you a meal or providing you with a pillow or blanket.

On budget airlines the priority may be different. After fulfilling the normal tasks of safety and ensuring the aircraft is in order, some budget carrier flight attendants move into selling mode. All items which are provided free of charge on major carriers are usually sold by the budget carrier's attendants.

This may include the blankets and pillows, as well as food and drinks. Therefore, the service can be different on low cost or budget carriers.

Customer Service and Support Quality at EasyJet

In order to survive, most businesses need to ensure that they provide good customer support and service.

One of the things that make budget airlines unique is that they often operates on many routes without competition. In other words, on some sectors, no other airline can even come close to the price the budget carrier charges.

What that can mean is that without competition, so long as the airline meets basic standards and conditions, great or even good customer service may be one of the things that isn't essential for an airline to survive.

Many blogs and websites indicate some frustration with the level of customer service provided by budget or low cost carriers. That doesn't mean they are all bad, but some people do have some concerns with the ability of some airlines to provide good service and effective problem resolution.

Call Centre versus Website Fares on EasyJet

Many budget or discount airlines have different fare charges on their website than what you will pay if you contact the call centre to make a booking.

Sometimes the call centre fare is significantly greater than the fare cost on the airline's website. This might not normally be a problem - people can choose to book online, or for those that aren't able, have someone else do it for them.

However, problems can occur when there may be higher call centre fare for flights. If someone is unable to access the Internet or has some disability that means they can only book through the call centre, higher fares might apply.

Worse still, if you have a current booking and need to make a change but cant do so through the Internet, there may be an extra charge when amending through a call centre. In addition to paying a higher charge than online as a process fee to change your flight, there may be a charge to make up the difference of a higher priced fare.

While it is often relatively easy to change a flight online, thus avoiding this problem for most users, there might be people who get caught out.

Were you given all available information on prices when booking or changing a flight?

EasyJet Terminal Facilities Review

Many of the airports that EasyJet fly into are the main airport for that destination.

But because they may be referred to as a low cost carrier EasyJet may be on the look out for cheaper, less central airports to use.

These budget terminals are usually just that - budget, without the frills and expense that you will see at main terminal buildings used by larger airlines. That is usually how low cost carriers save money, and by which they claim to offer you lower fares.

Sometimes, these Airports are well outside the city area that you are intending to visit and may require significant travel by bus, train or car to get to your final destination.

So don't expect anything too flash when you get to a specific low cost terminal. However, that doesn't mean that basic facilities, or good transfer arrangements shouldn't exist.

How have you found the facilities at Easyjet terminals?

Do the terminal facilities meet acceptable standards?

Value of Cheap Easyjet Fares

As a low cost carrier, EasyJet generally offers lower fares than those of the regular airlines. However, because of the regular specials and different fare classes, and the difference in the prices of fares through the call centre, it is often difficult to tell how much of a saving there is from other established non budget airlines.

Once you get past the advertised prices, and consider all the extras like baggage charges, seat allocation, priority boarding and meal costs, the price of the fare is usually not quite what you originally thought.

Then add in the airport taxes and charges and your very cheap ticket has somehow become much more expensive.

There are other issues to take into account as well. You must be at the airport earlier that other airlines and if you miss the check in deadline, you lose your flight. The airport may be harder to get to than the normal airport and may require longer and costlier travel. There is no frequent flier program. And if you are delayed or your flight is cancelled, you may not be compensated.

These are issues that you usually don't have to worry about with other airlines. Therefore there is a question as to the real value of flying low cost carriers like Easyjet. In the current economic environment, more established airlines are discounting their fares, creating less of a price difference with the budget carriers, while still maintaining full service.

What are your thoughts on the discounts provided by EasyJet?

Do you prefer to use the non budget carriers because of the full service?

Or is the price saving from EasyJet worth the sacrifice of service?

Any other comments about EasyJet cheap fares compared with other airlines?
