I don't recognise the scenario painted by Wingnut after - how many times was it? - one journey, and even that 'went smoothly'.

Wingnut's contribution could apply to any airline, though the recommendation to check prices is of course an absolute. Long queues? Just travel in the US. I had particular problems with BA in FRA, and they're certainly not alone.

You get what you pay for, and as outlined in other posts, that's fine. With easyJet, there is a useful added extra: if your flight is four hours or more late, you get a refund. Which other airline offers that?

And they do carry an awful lot of business passengers. Just check the suits and ties!
