Overview of easyJet
easyJet offers a wide-reaching network throughout Europe, North Africa, and the Middle East. The airline has its largest operating base in London; however, it has more than 25 additional hubs throughout Europe. Many of these are located in large cities such as Barcelona, Paris, Amsterdam, Lisbon, and Milan. In addition to a large number of domestic services throughout the United Kingdom, countries with multiple destinations include France, Germany, Greece, Italy, and Spain.
Flying as a low-cost carrier, easyJet delivers competitively priced fares with minimal onboard amenities. Operating costs are kept low by scheduling direct services between its large spread of hubs. easyJet Europe and easyJet Switzerland are subsidiaries of the main carrier and focus on targeted markets.
All passengers are seated within a 3 x 3 economy cabin, meaning you may want to pay for a reserved seat to avoid being automatically allocated a middle seat. Healthy snacks are available for purchase onboard. A carbon-offsetting option can be added to the price of a fare to minimize each customer’s carbon footprint.
Exclusively Airbus planes are flown by easyJet. Aircraft that are suited to intracontinental trips, such as the A319, A320, and A321 series, are most commonly operated. The jets range in capacities, with the A321neo model one of the largest and capable of carrying roughly 235 passengers. While the fleet is painted with a simple white and orange design, some aircraft feature dedications to figures such as William Shakespeare or major cities like Barcelona. Several aircraft have also been named in honor of former employees, with their names printed underneath the cockpit windows.
