Cashing in on a quick buck for a one-off sporting event while screwing over existing, loyal customers is no way to run a business. After cancelling my flight easyJet offered me a cash refund or a voucher. Neither of these options get me to Munich. Lufthansa do have a flight on the same dates but over £200 in fare difference. Will easyJet pay the difference? I suspect not. Why should I be out of pocket while easyJet cashes in, at my expense?
Upon further investigation I can see easyJet do not normally fly between Liverpool and Paris however they do have flights out on 27 and 28 May, returning 29 May for a whopping £1,037.28 return. To make way for these flights, on Friday 27 May easyJet has cancelled flight EZY7253 from Liverpool to Krakow and flight EZY7195 from Liverpool to Faro.
Really disgusting behaviour from easyJet.
What makes Easyjet's profiteering really annoying is , Liverpool to Paris /CDG was a very longstanding route with them. They dropped it for Covid but have not reinstated it. Im not very impressed that they are happy just run a few flights because they are going to make a killing, but don't care about the regular traveller to Paris.
