The current schedule for Easy Jet only goes up to 2 November 2008 does anyone know when they release prices for dates after that? I am looking to book end Nov 08.

It is always a walk in the open air for EasyJet from Stansted - and for Ryanair too.

Easyjet say that November dates will be bookable from June, but won't give a date. I am also looking to book in November and if I can't do it before 19th June then I am going to lose money on the flights I have booked, as detailed elsewhere in this thread!

Thanks Noel, well June isnt that far off, so not too long to wait now.

Hi can anyone remember what date easyjet summer flights got released last year?

I booked this year's flights to Dalaman on 1st January.

About the Middle of December.

I have travelled with Easyjet many times from Glasgow, Edinburgh and Belfast airports, and must say that I have never witnessed or experienced any sort of scrum. Everything has always been very orderly and well controlled. Perhaps it is just a problem at certain airports.

Me neither.

Have flown EJ to Paris from newcastle on many occasions with small children with us without a problem.

Those with Small Children get priority just like speedy boarders and i can't say i've ever seen a scrum to get on.

There isn't really any point anyway as you'll all get on as you're all booked!

When Easyjet release their Winter fares, later this month, what month will it it go to next year please?
I want to book a flight going in April and returning in May - and if it only goes up to April I may have a problem. Thanks

The winter fares only usually run through until 28th March.

Have returned from Valencia with Easyjet and I still do not like flying with them. The flights themselves were absolutely fine and on time both ways so no problems there.

We were early checking in at Stansted so were allocated group A boarding. Why, oh why though do all those who have group B insist on crowding round the gate so that those all those in other groups struggle to find their way through. Some in group B even try to get on with the other groups - most thankfully being turned back. No wonder some people from other countries think of us as being ignorant sometimes - we do not seem to understand (or do not want to) the boarding procedures of Easyjet.

Returning from Valencia the desks opened just under 2 hours before the flight - 2 desks which were both painfully slow - we were about halfway down the queue and it took 50 minutes for us to check in. Boarding was slightly better - mostly probably due to the flight not being full and also a airbridge which does control things a little more.

I personally find all flying a little bit of a hassle but Easyjet make it worse. Will think twice before flying with them again - even if it does mean we go to Gatwick instead of Stansted.

Sorry Pippa, that the info I gave you didn't actually hold true for your flight. Normally Stansted is well behaved, but there are some people who really don't care about rules, safety or commonsense .... those people in Group B that you mentioned. I do wish people would be a little less selfish and respect others more ......................

Hi Pippa,

Sorry you did'nt enjoy flying with EJ, but who will you fly with BA?, Iberia, at twice the price. We are trying Monarch from Luton to Tenerife in December at what I consider a reasonable price £280 for two and they do allocate seats. We are going to Madrid with EJ in September cost £108 for two from Luton over twice the price with Iberia from Heathrow never mind the cost of parking.

get planning your next trip I look forward to seeing them on here,

Regards David.

Actually we have flown several times with BA and as long as you book at the right time they can be very reasonable especially when you take into consideration that everything is included. Also if we need to pay for parking then that is a lot cheaper at Gatwick then Stansted although it is a little further to drive.

We haven't flown Monarch for a while so they are a possibility.

Alsacienne - I totally agree with you re bad behaviour - but that has been mentioned before so I will say no more........

i had my first experience with easyjet last week flying to gib.
nearly a 2 hour delay going out and 1 hour delay coming back, although they did make up some time on both occassions.
the scrum at embarcation was much worse than my normal scrum with ryanair, but my experience with them was a definite advantage on these flights as i did get my pick of seats on both journeys
the bit that got me was the pilot on the way back blaming ATC for introducing changes to the rules, and then saying he would be taking a shortcut on the way back to help make up time.
why cant all airlines just tell the truth and let us know the facts; the plane was late arriving and they had to file a new flight plan and they would use a bit more fuel flying a bit faster to try and get their schedule back on track for their own benefit.

The winter schedule seems late this year and with another "summer special sale" it looks like it may drift into July.

Frustrating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
