Does anybody know why Stelios (EasyJet owner) still gives the go ahead for allowing the filming of this documentary if the majority of the programme shows disgruntled and seriously p***ed off passengers on it (who often bad mouth the company to the camera). Surely this is bad advertisement for EasyJet?.....

It's interesting that this programme continues to run when the gist of it is the same -
some members of the public fail to grasp that a plane is not a bus, just because it is still waiting to take off doesn;t mean you can breeze in twenty minutes after check-in closed and expect to hope on. That coupled with the knock-on effects of bad weather, mecahnical failure, and so on, mean that some people miss their flights or have to be re-routed, and get upset on camera.
It is a one-trick pony, but people still watch it - and worryingly, people don;t seem to be learning from what they see.
Oh, and how much of these incidents are actually directly attribituble to Easy-Jet? Virtually none.

If in the future anyone gets to travel with easyjet it may be an idea to argue at the check in point no matter how trivial the complaint ( real or unreal)..Maybe burst into tears.(talking in a foreign accent might be good) take a kiddy in a pushchair and as many bags as you can carry (all hand luggage!)and demanding to see anyone who looks older than 15 year old Leo..It might not get you on the flight but you might be being filmed..Instant TV stardom that lasts longer than an xfactor winner!
As a regular viewer of the program and flyer it is obvious that the problems are not with EasyJet but with the stupidity of the passengers. Thats the facination of the show. Just when you thought you had seen it all and heard all the excuses another passenger turns up with a new one.
On a flight from Paris to Liverpool earlier this year we had a tight transfer and expected to miss check in so we were prepared for a stop over in Paris but thanks to EasyJet staff and the fact we only had one bag for the two of us we made the flight. The show just demonstrates the getting angry with the airline does not help you or your plans.
