Agaricus Bisporus - you make good points. Of course the Operations department cannot be expected to work miracles and inform everyone about everything all the time.

And yet and yet. Having had a look at the Gatwick departures / arrivals board online, almost every single easyJet flight today has a delay, some up to 2 or 3 hours.

Yes there has been snow and yes there has been a strike in Spain. And yes delays are most certainly not all the airline's fault. But easyJet does seem to struggle to run its schedule as efficiently as other carriers. After all, your director of operations was fired and this very matter got Stelios rather hot under the collar. Let's hope Carolyn is on the case.

For the record, I'm not anti-easyJet. I like the airline. And despite a six-hour delay last year on the same route, I am happy to, and have booked easy flights to/from Geneva in January. Bottle half full.
