| Having been into the complains corner and read the numberous posts about how awful airlines such as Ryanair and Easyjet are I thought I would start a thread where people can express their love for low cost airlines.
I use low budget airlines about 8-10 times a year and I think they are a great idea. When I travel I don't always need 20 kg of luggage, an inflight meal, a movie to pass the time etc.... and despite all the complaints I have never had a problem flying as a direct result of the low budget airline. When there have been problems I find the companies more than willing to help arrange a hotel for the overnight stay and some compensation for expenses incurred, e.g. food.
If you don't enjoy having to pay the extras to check in a bag then fly BA or Swiss but don't slag off the low cost airlines for making air travel cheap for the rest of us!
Being able to get cheap flights all over Europe is great and I can only hope these companies expand to offer more routes for great prices. What a shame it is that Ryanair no longer fly from Switzerland. | |

The thing that annoys me about easyjet is that when I want to travel the easyjet Geneva to Edinburgh flight isn't all that cheap!
Example is that my mother's 50th bday is coming up at easter weekend. The prices are redonculous! It's about £60 cheaper to fly to manchester.
That is probably what we will do and hire a car and drive up to edinburgh. £120 saved between us and spend £40 on a hire car. Can't be that bad!
