That's because their aircraft are bigger than yours and don't fit on as many stands as yours do, a fact that many Easyjet staff seem to forget about
OK, so maybe not Stand 6 onwards, but why do they never get put on the western apron? They do fit there, because XL 800's can be found there often enough?

The majority, if not all our turnarounds are supposed to be 25 minutes aswell. Its even just 20 minutes in Scotland! We are getting 40-45 minute turns, due to the sheer distance between the weston apron and terminal - and also the logistics involved inbetween.

I understand, 757's need 1-3, and arriving flights of this variant need to be pre-allocated these, It just seem's unfair that Ryanair always seem to be allocated premium spots too, whilst easyJet gets the bum deal, and buses.

Im sure that when Ryanair arrive full time - we easy boys can kiss goodbye to our on time performance, and to stand 1-5.
