booking with easy jet

[ginger111]

hi having not done this before how easy is it to book a flight without luggage only hand luggage and once ive got my ticket do i just turn up 3hrs before or do i have to book in online cheers gareth

HI, it is so easy. Go on to sky scanner and that will find you the cheapest flights to Corfu. You book it and then you just check in on line and print your boarding passes and turn up to the airport on that day and check in. We do it all the time its so easy. Just make sure you print your boarding passes though or they will charge you extra when you get to the airport. Hope this helps.

Ginger - I always fly EasyJet with hand luggage only - it's easy, but you need to remember a couple of things - EasyJet will only allow you to board with ONE piece of hand luggage, and it must not be bigger than 56x45x25 cm including wheels, pockets, or anything else that sticks out. If you have a handbag then this is counted as a second piece, so you must put that inside your main bag, BUT, you can carry a coat, so if it fits into a coat pocket then nobody will know!
You can check-in on line at any time from 60 days before the flight date up to 2 hours before departure time - at that point it will not be available.
In addition to printing your Boarding Pass you need to enter details on the EasyJet site about your passport, they will have advised you about this on the booking confirmation email - make sure you get it right, because if the details do not match you will be prevented from flying.
When you arrive at the airport you can go straight to the security screening and through to the departure lounge.
On your return journey - be advised that Corfu security will NOT accept your pre-printed Boarding Pass - you must take it to the check-in desk and get a Boarding Pass from them in just the same way that you would with old-fashioned tickets.
Hope that helps.

Ha ha Ginger-1, maybe you can get a weeks worth of underpants on as well!  Book your taxi here on the forum, cheaper than picking one up from the airport, also check with your accommodation, many do airport pickups, or nearer the time you can also ask for a taxi share on the forum, you could be lucky if you both only have hand luggage.

Ooops sorry didn't see your post about taxi share.

Geoff, when I came back from Corfu last week I had hand luggage only. I had a pre-printed boarding pass and went straight through - no need to check-in. However, the previous time I had a suitcase so had to check-in and they then re-issued me with a proper boarding pass.

[Geoff]

Typically Greek Sandy - when I returned in May they refused my pre-printed Boarding Pass at security and sent me to the Check-In desk to get a Boarding Pass issued by them. Of course, by then there was a great big queue and I was at the back of it!
Such is life

Hi just wanted to clear something up when filling in passenger information about your passport  we all live in the uk so is country of issue  {united kingdom gbr} and nationality [united kingdon gbr} as you cant say irish/welsh or scotish or even british citizen just dont want to fill in the form wrong and not be able to fly cheers gareth

[Geoff]

Yup - that's what I put and they let me through!
Don't panic if you enter something wrong - you can get back to the form from "My Bookings" and make changes to it. As long as it's right by the time you fly!!!
