staff pestering people to buy things
Don't know how many EZY flights you've been on but I travel with them frequently and have never once been 'pestered' to buy things.

If you think that the brilliant EZY Cabin Crew are pestering you to buy things it may be to offer you some of the things you pay an outrageous price for with other airlines i.e. food and drink. On other airlines these are certainly not complimentary!

If they are 'pestering' you then make an issue with EZY management or the Senior Cabin Crew on the aircraft but if them asking you very politely and cheerfully if you would like something to eat or drink (which takes what....10 seconds out of your paperback?) to be pestering then you may want to have a look at the the definition of 'Pester' in the Oxford English Dictionary. As a matter of fact, don't bother ........

Pester


verb trouble or annoy with persistent requests or interruptions.
— ORIGIN originally in the sense ‘overcrowd or impede’, later ‘infest’: from French empestrer ‘encumber’.

10 seconds to ask a question is hardly a persistent request or interruption!
