I have the new EZY APP on my IPad and just seen Verona & Brescia listed as destinations from Belfast Int. No dates etc loaded yet. These destinations are not listed on the main website. Mistake or new routes?

Going to Costa Del Sol for Christmas at the end of the year. When will flights for Malaga be out for December 2012 and Jan 2013? Ideally from Liverpool or Manchester. Are they usually daily from both airports?

Thumbs up

Occasional : Granada was a weather diversion due to low viz in Malaga. A/c refuelled and continued onto Malaga

Yep. MAN-AGP slowed down to take advantage of the forecast improvment and made it straight in. Previous to that I believe there were three company aircraft diverting.

£9 admin fee on all bookings now.

As a Visa Electron card holder who flies with Easyjet about 4 times per month, Im not happy

The admin fee is per transaction, so try and book as many flights as you can at once to just pay one fee.

For example if you're going EDI-BFS 4 times in one month then book all 4 sectors at the same time, under the same PNR and you'll still only pay £9, instead of 4 separate bookings and paying £36.

Oh, I agree, don't get me wrong, I just like to try and get around it as much as possible.

I used to think EZY had a reasonable fee, but £9 is ridiculous.

I don't agree with the card fee. It is pretty much the only fee I don't agree with but until something is done to make the playing field level then I don't see how it will change. edi_local has the right idea though and especially if you fly so often then there must be a good chance that you will have the foresight and ability to book as many of your flights at once.

Unfortunately it's one of those fee's which penalise those who travel alone as when passengers on the booking increase the fee becomes more reasonable when viewed from a percentage perspective.

Lets be thankful atleast that EZY aren't like Ryanair when it comes to their card charges.

£9 admin fee if paying by debit card. It is another (edited... another 2.5% is added) for credit card, yet the admin fee still shows £9

i always pay with electron and have been exempt from any charge but now this £9 fee has added half the fare of the flights ontop, a bit OTT i think.
That makes them more expensive than "you know who" and flybe.
Not good

If my business had overhead 'admin fees' of over £184 million pounds a year I'd have to be having a look at that as there's a serious amount of cash going down the toilet somewhere...

41 million pax (average 2 pax per booking) x £9.

As a solo traveller, that often books one way flights with EZY. I can safely say this now makes them very uncompetitive to alternatives available to me. As a point of principle, an unavoidable admin fee to buy a ticket appears to be very unreasonable. Seems to go against their business friendly strategy - OK maybe for families & groups. Think it's a big mistake- surely the trend is now the other way? Making fares all inclusive rather than introducing more add ons.
Wrong call Ms McCall

I believe the fares are all inclusive and the first price you see includes the admin fee
