I did experience some very heavy delays with them over a short period of time, out of BRS, a few months back. Situation seems to have improved since. I have had German Airways outright cancellations when their aircraft have gone tech on that route though...
All my Eastern Flights have used an airbridge at the far end of the D pier. Further to walk, but definitely prefer it over being bussed from D6!
Yet to take my first Exeter flight but all future bookings will be out of there for me, given how close I live to EXT (unless the awkward timing of the 1x rotation would require an overnight in AMS). There does seem to be a bit of a price premium over BRS, but convenience and savings on ground transport / parking make it worthwhile for me. Hope the route does well.
