Seems that Easyjet aircraft are spending a lot of time on the tarmac at Southend these days. This is great news as the aircraft are not wearing out as quickly and if there is a delay on the first flight of the day there is plenty of time to catch up before the second and only remaining departure leaves.
Passengers at Gatwick and other airports often face delays as easyjet often tries to get 4 return flights a day out of their aircraft so passengers using Southend should benefit from the airlines generous tarmac time.
I enjoyed that LTNman; excellent positive spin! Keep it up - Don't Worry, Be Happy!!
