In my experience, EZY does not assign seating at check-in. You get given a coloured plastic boarding card (not a pass) and they call you forward for boarding according to the colour of your card. Those than check-in early get given the colours that are called first. Once on board, you pick your own seat. In practice, of course, everyone simply surges forward to the gate the moment the flight is called and there is a rather undignified scramble for seating.

Yes he is, and so are you; EZY does not fly to Frankfurt.
EZY chooses principal airports in comparison to Ryanair, which for example flies to Hahn (for Frankfurt), Prestwick (for Glasgow), Charleroi (for Brussels) etc. This makes EZY one of the few low cost carriers I would be prepared to fly.
