It aint really difficult flying with lo-co airlines. Read the T&Cs, turn up on time, get on, get off. Some of the best free entertainment to be had is by arriving at the airport in good time and sitting back with a glass watching the stressed out muppets that feel their own rules apply with regard to baggage weight, check in closing times, sobriety, expired passports, an extra kid (she is only 2 and can sit on my lap) etc....
Sometimes I can only wonder at the reserves of patience the ground staff have.
