great airline, their only challenge for me is they fly from Gatwick and Luton. Gatwick seems to take for ever to get out of (runway congestion) and Luton is a pain to get to with the train/bus link
I did this in reverse end of July, and they had a Bistro service, but they don't have a trolley, you make an order and pay and then they bring the items to you.
I fly to Newcastle Upon Tyne lots from Belfast International and have only once had a delay...flying over again on 9th August and looking forward to it...especially with Easy Jet.. .loved your video...good luck....
JT's Journeys I’m travelling to Marmaris, Turkey 🇹🇷 from Bristol Airport. I’m hoping that the restaurants are open for food by then🤞✈️ not looking forward to the 4hr flight though. The masks are so hot.🥵
Very nice video! I have a flight on Wizz Air from Belfast International to Vilnius. It's also my first lockdown flight too! Also the date is 21:00 on Sunday.
thanks for your video :-) i will be flying with ej in three weeks (berlin - pisa) and tried to find a video on the actual happenings when boarding / flying SO THANKS AGAIN :-)
Just flew into tenerife today ✈✈✈. Flying onto Poland next week as there's no lockdown and little restrictions there in place, ideal place for a normal holiday
Good question, i guess it's all down to where's the most profitable place to base your aircraft and what routes will then generate the most profit. They still have a good number of frequencies from other 'london' airports
I flew to turkey in September flight was late taking off from Gatwick and there was duty free on board but no food was served only drinks. It is unfair that you have to buy drinks from duty free or on board where a cup of tea is 3 pounds. The flight coming back from turkey was slightly early which shows that the turkish aviation and Airport are more efficient in every way.
@@JTsJourneys Salaam JT.IF I TELL YOU what we had to go through on our return back from Turkey you yourself would be very angry and annoyed...but i am happy we got home safe and sound that's all that counts in my book.
I have just flown with easyJet, I was confident that everyone would be waiting a mask. The drinks trolley came around twice and most people removed masks for half an hour each time as they sipped their drinks. People walking around plane without masks on and flight attendants said nothing. Flight attendants constantly fidgeting with there masks and never saw one of them use a hand sanitiser and I was in the front row. Why people can’t eat proper food before they get on a plane amazes me
The few flights i've been on recently FAs generally seem to take masks off when in the galley area, i think most people are just viewing these as a 'should do' and an inconvenience.
I did a very similar video to yours and I just love how you are filming confidently while boarding, etc, I always feel awkward doing it so I barely get a few seconds of footage :D What camera are you using, the quality is great?
Just watched yours! looks like a fairly similar experience. I just clip my go pro to a bag strap and hope for the best, the worse they can do is ask you to stop :) I use a mix of go pro hero 7 and an iPhone 11pro
interesting video, i am flying easyjet from malaga to berlin next month. Do they do the onboard service like they usually do (for snacks and drinks) or is that cancelled due to covid 19.
When i flew they hadn't resumed the Bistro snacks and drinks service, but i believe that has now resumed, although i'm not sure if alcohol is available yet.
Interesting, thanks for vid. I'm flying EasyJet Toulouse to Gatwick next week and the reverse a couple of days later. I think I'll take some sandwiches with me.
Thank you for making this. I am thinking of going to see my elderly Dad but I am very frightened of flying in "the new abnormal". How strict are they at the airport with face masks? Would face coverings like a buff do?
I didn’t see anyone policing their use in the airport, but most people adjusted to wearing them whilst walking around the terminal. When sat down in the departure lounge I saw plenty of people remove their masks so they could eat and drink and most people kept well apart whilst seated. On the aircraft the policy was strictly enforced, with anyone removing their mask spoken to and asked to keep it on if they weren’t drinking or eating. A buff would certainly meet the requirement of a face covering, might get a bit warm though after a few hours !
@@JTsJourneys Thank you for your quick reply :) I get very claustrophobic in masks - we have to wear them at work and I can hardly cope. I may wait for a few more weeks in case we can fly "normal" again. Thanks again for making the video :)
Thanks for this video of my home airport, BFS :) I’m flying to Palma from Belfast in October with easyJet and I’m curious, did you see anyone using scarves as a face mask on board? Cheers!
Have a great flight! Yes, plenty of people using a variety of 'face coverings' , snoods, masks, scarfs. I think as long as it covers your face and mouth its allowed.
Last time easyjet send me email flight will start again on September from Dortmund to London Luton and 2days ago cancel flight all September and will start again on 25october 😭
I’m going on hoilday in 2 weeks and I wondered did you have to sit next to stranger or was like the free seat in the row free me and my boyfriend have window and middle seat and was wondering if the isle seat would be free or if we would have someone sat there?
Were you at Belfast City or Belfast International? i am from Northern Ireland and Belfast International is honestly the worst airport I've ever been through. The layout is awful. It hasn't been updated in I don't know how long. The queues are slow. It's inefficient. Belfast City is pretty bad too. Not a good welcome for people from overseas.
Belfast International on this one. It reminds me a bit of Manchester T3, old buildings that have had bits added over the years with really random corridors. City on the hand was pretty good, just suffered from a lack of seating in the flybe days
Hey, it very much depends on if you feel it's safe, what the guidance is, and if you really need to make the trip. I think there's sensible precautions in place on EasyJet so i wouldn't hesitate to fly them again, even now.
like mknnn says, i dont think you can travel on your own with easyjet if you are 14 you might need a parent or guardian or someone else over 18 to go with you.
They only ask for ur id card or passport is there anyhting else ? And also if l will travel to belfast do l have to self isosilate l want to know and l would be happybif u can answer to my questions 🙂
Hey, EasyJet only require your ID on domestic flights if you have a checked in bag. There's no isolation requirements if you originate in the UK, however the rules change on the 10th of July
ah yes. so the 55* gates at Gatwick are generally used for domestic flights. The scanners here will check that the same person is using the boarding pass to enter the gate area is the same person who used the boarding pass at security.
@@JTsJourneys ohh thats what it is ok thanks alot was just bit confused ...was just wondering why are they checking identity for passenger for domestic flights
it's more the airline policy to make sure the person on the ticket travels to protect revenue. If you check a bag though you'll certainly be asked to provide ID
couple of strange things with the man taking your phone to check you in after rubbing his face before he touched it and then handed it back to you and also the ignorant passenger with his mask down on his mobile phone inside the plane
Hey :) the cut away to the check in guy with my phone is from last year, just to try and show the differences between flying now vs before the world fell apart. Totally agree about the guy with the phone a) taking a call on a plane is a no no, b) mask off to speak?
Dirty seat in front of you and tissue in the seat pocket....not good signs from easyjet. Shouldn't be anything like that now with these super deep cleans between flights that they've been telling everyone about. A dirty tissue in your seat pocket is poor during normal times... I do agree about the disembarking though, should be like that usually.
From the flights i've had recently, there's plenty of appetite to fly from the public. Perhaps the base fare might increase slightly to cover the additional cleaning, but in a revenue management pricing world i can't see a 3x fare increase
Hey Daniel, I agree, on the phone or not your mask should be on (even if it makes it difficult to unlock!) the 3:32 is actually a clip from last year (I've made the colour a little washed out to indicate what traveling was like before the new measures were introduced)
No I was not judging, if we are allowed to fly then thats a personal choice. This pandemic is ongoing not over, that is all I was getting at. Stay safe👍😷
Same here, they cancelled our flight on 2nd July which is understandable but they won’t give us a refund which is just stupid. Such a smart way so they don’t go bankrupt
This is probably the one occasion the duty free store were offering some fantastic deals, i think 3 for the price of 2 may have been the offer on spirits!
This makes me exited for my holiday
Where are the folks headed on holiday?
I’m going on holiday in 2 days on Sunday

Flew Easyjet around Europe for 2 years... bloody loved them
great airline, their only challenge for me is they fly from Gatwick and Luton. Gatwick seems to take for ever to get out of (runway congestion) and Luton is a pain to get to with the train/bus link

I took the trip at the start of July just before they brought the Bistro back. An interesting way of doing it, were there many people ordering?

I did this route two weeks ago, it was so sad to see the airport empty and those planes lined up.

@@JTsJourneys i know, its worrying to think how this will all end.

It seems easyjet is more a style of life as just one more airline!
To me they're an airline that speaks to my generation, especially their ad campaign 'Europe by easyjet'
No duty free on a flight to Belfast no surprise there

Nice video and a somewhat dystopian Gatwick airport. I won't be flying unless absolutely necessary until face muzzles are optional/no longer required.
I suspect they may be the norm for most people for years to come. If you look at East Asia, masks have become the norm since Sars
@@JTsJourneys Yep; another fake "virus"

Quality trip report, might be worth adding the prices in the videos just so we can see but other than that, top work!
Thanks! This one was £53.48 including the seat reservation fee, a pretty good price I think :)
Hi there
Did you have to show a negative Covid test before on boarding the flight ?
Hello, no, this was a domestic flight within the UK and prior to most of the international requirements to show a negative test.

The real solution for airlines is to triple the price of fares - less travelers and better profits.
From the flights i've had recently, there's plenty of appetite to fly from the public. Perhaps the base fare might increase slightly to cover the additional cleaning, but in a revenue management pricing world i can't see a 3x fare increase
