FRatSTN - while I sympathise with your situation, Easyjet has no public service obligations at Stansted. It has no formal duties to people living in one part of the UK - its duties are to its shareholders to provide a good return on capital, and possibly also to its employees to provide continued employment. A commercial airline should target profit, not turnover / volume of passengers. Travelling over 30 miles to an airport does not seem a great hardship - perhaps an hour's drive ?
