No 'printer friendly' option to print boarding pass at Easyjet

When I came to print my boarding passes at Easyjet, there was no 'Printer friendly' option and each page has 3 solid colour ads taking up one third of the page. It's an expensive waste of ink.

I emailed customer.service@easyjet.com and got the following reply.
Basically saying that if enough people request it, they might consider it.

IF YOU HAVE TIME PLEASE EMAIL THEM. MANY THANKS

Rachel

Thank you for the email and for using easyJet for your traveling needs. Thank you as well for the feedback as I have made sure to make a note of this for you, if we receive enough comments in regards to making a printer friendly option then easyJet will most likely accommodate the requests.
Untill then, then best I can recommend is the possibility of using the easyJet Mobile app if you have a compatible smart phone. It's a very simple and really easy to use, you can even use it as an electronic boarding pass. Also you can log in with your account and can amend your flight or add extras as you would normally, if you wish to know more on this here is a link to the website (available for iOS and Android).
I hope this has helped and once again thank you for the feedback.
Kind regards,
Martin

    Adverts are part of their business. Remove them and add the cost on to fares?

    You don't have to remove the adverts though. Just change the colouring.

    Is the boarding pass just on 1 page, as you can set the printer just to print that page, it doesn't need to be in colour either. I had Baltic air boarding pass printed in black and white in October and it scanned fine both outwards and return.

    I always delete the advertisements and only print the actual boarding pass bit (the bar code is critical). Never had any problems.

    As Saza says, just select page you want ( 1-1 ) then it will only print out the bar code and name bit.


    Cannot see what is hard about that?

    Not really the point though.
    It's a boarding pass, not a web page. It should be printing printer friendly anyway.
    The ads can be on the main page, but upon clicking "print" it should print the boarding pass, not the whole web page.

    Alternatively, set your printer to print in black and white only?

    The boarding pass is a pdf and it's all on one page, advert & important stuff. I suppose you could edit the pdf if you have a suitable application.

    There's no need to print it in colour.

    And you're Peter Duncan; I gave you fair warning

    Since they are getting paid to feature those ads I highly doubt this.
  • Even printing in black and white it's still a lot of ink. I think it's ridiculous that they don't have a printer friendly option!
