Stansted to Alicante on Easy jet

Elderly parents travelling to Alicante via Stansted on Easy jet.
They are normally Ryan air users but have opted for Easy Jet for some reason this time.
Question is do Easy Jet use the same gate/area for their Alicante flight or are they a little random in their selection ?

Parents like to be near the area rather than being involved in the rush that normally takes place on budget flights.

Appreciate any advice / help on this. :)

    Not an Easyjet or Stansted specialist but have you considered booking special assistance for them?

    I book this for my Dad and it works fine, only from check in onwards though.
  • Having travelled both Easyjet and Ryanair out of Stansted, personally I'd take Easyjet over Ryanair any day of the week, so I hope your parents will also enjoy them. While still a budget airline, they seem a little less crazy at the boarding area. Not sure if you parents bought up for the 'Speedy boarding' pass, but it might be worth the investment if they're not getting special assistance.

    In addition--I'd print the boarding passes at home to be able to use the faster 'baggage drop off only' queues. You can also pre-print Easyjet boarding passes for the return journey as well, if it's within the next 60 days.
