I fly easyJet constantly.
I have never had an issue. The crew are pleasant. Speedy boarding boards first. I am usually row 1 ( I book in advance). I don't pay for seat assignment ( I do pay £200 a year for plus card ) and am flight club so I can change without change fee which i do a lot.
if they cancel. Amazing. I get to re book on any flight to any destination on any date free of charge.
The budget airline is ba.
I do the occasional ce redemption and to be fair most are nice but the retail price is simply daft.
