The main hold ups are security and the be at the airport 2 hours before the flight rule. The 2 hours is only sen as a guide but most people adhere to it (particularly on budget airlines) because people get seated first come first served and if you want to sit together then you need to arrive early.<br/><br/>In my experience EasyJet are a pretty good budget airline for service but the leg room could be increased and the food prices reduced - but that is where the budget airlines recoup their money.

No problems. I wonder if that's the case with all budget airlines, like EasyJet, for instance?
