Why isn’t Easyjet included?

Even though the airlines needn’t pay, and my trial ‘Ryanair FlightChecker’ was used 100,000 time plus a month, Easyjet refused permission arguing “no one’d want that.” May be it just doesn’t want people to see its prices compared to the competition? Hopefully it’ll change it’s mind soon, why not fill in it’s feedback form to ask it to. We’re also speaking to some of the other budget airlines to get them on board too.

I've used the feedback form to email EasyJet with this message:

I'm astonished to hear that you didn't want to be included in Money Saving Expert's cheap flight checker. It's free for both the airline and the customer, and the Ryan Air version has been extremely popular.

I've used it to book 3 return flights with Ryan Air this year so far, up until the begining of April, for between 4 and 7 people each time.

There are four airlines onboard so far, and several other budget airlines are also considering it. I'd like to see EasyJet's flights included, too.

Hope you'll give it some thought.

Kind regards,

M

It has been suggested that EasyJet have refused to allow their flights to be included in the Flightchecker because they are always more expensive than Ryan Air, and their inclusion will draw attention to this.

In that case, lets get the pressure on! Use the feedback to contact them and say you want to see their flights on the Flightchecker too.

The new Flightchecker is great, Martin, by the way!

It's excellent, makes finding a bargain even easier now!

How do the airlines do it for these prices?
Just wish there were more flights from airports near me!
Keep up the good work guys...

Excellent, what about a 'reverse' facility.

For example I want to fly to Nice but I don’t really care which airport I fly from, but I have to get to Nice as travelling there from other airports would be very lengthy and painful.

Could the flight checker be modified so that you can specify all airports for the departure and just pick the destination (Nice). That way you can quickly see what’s the cheapest airline to get to your destination and from the cheapest airport in the UK.

That's a good idea. I have about 4 airports I CAN use, if the price makes it worth it.

What about a flightchecker with destinations first -i.e I want the cheapest flight to Mallorca and I am prepared to go from a number of airports within 50 miles of where I live?

Hi all
I notice that manston airport is not listed, this is a great little airport in Thanet with EU Jet operating flights daily to many destinations. Car parking is also a bargain at only £20 per week. Any chance it can be included on the flight checker?????
