I'm sick to death of all the crap thrown our way about how bad EZY are, about 'orange' etc etc etc

True, we're not perfect and often have hiccups ( like ANY other airline <img src="rolleyes.gif" border="0"> ) and we don't profess otherwise ! We do try to deliver a solid product though ! It may not be to everyone's taste, but c'est la vie ! True, you may not like it but on the other hand you may do ! Either way - it's your choice !

It's simple - our aircraft are flown by normal, professional crews that may or may not have worked for other airlines, and may or may not move elsewhere after a stint here. Point is - they are normal aircrews !!! Just like the ones seen at airports around the world ! They do NOT have two heads, three arms, etc etc etc or are painted orange !

Our aircraft use jet-A1 like other aircraft - NOT orange juice as suggested !

We work to the same CAA/JAR-Ops rules as other carriers.

Safety is NEVER compromised !! In fact, some of our regs are more sringent than other carriers !

Whatever the commercial side get up to is nothing to do with us ! They do their thing, we do ours ! If you don't like the advertising / PR methods then that's fine by me ! Some of it makes me cringe if the truth be known !

NONE of us like seeing others lose their jobs or suffer any hardships. We're in the same game as you after all ! It could happen to anyone !


I personally though do get annoyed when we get slagged off for stuff beyond our control, and accused of being 'unsafe', 'unprofessional', etc etc etc.

So to all those that keep having a go all the time, ( charterguy, tailscrape etc ) give it a rest ! It's boring ! If we slagged off your companies all the time you'd snap back !

Just grow up ! <img src="rolleyes.gif" border="0">

After Sep 11th, arguments about 'my airline is better than yours' are trivial, abusive and insensitive to the extreme !! <img src="mad.gif" border="0">

Oh and any chance of keeping topics relevent to their title ??
