Since flying to Paris with Easy Jet a few years ago, I re-named the Airline “Queasy Jet” because of their poor service and even poorer record of timeliness.

Well, this weekend they didn’t dissapoint again. As some of you may be aware my girlfriend Clare was coming over this weekend. She was supposed to be landing in Liverpool Airport at about 23:10 and getting the bus back to Manchester to stay with her sister. This didn’t go to plan, her flight was delayed by about an hour, which would have meant that she would have missed the last bus. So, I get a phonecall from Clare whilst at work, telling me about the delay. Cue helpful boyfriend with a car. I went to pick her up and took her back to Manchester. It was a very brief encounter, but was nice.

Okay, moving onto Monday. We met in (one of many) Starbucks in Manchester in the Morning and spent the day together, doing a mixture of wondering aroung the city centre to going back to mine (not what you think, I was only fixing her laptop :P ). We had to get Clare back to Liverpool Airport at about 3:30 pm for a flight that would be boarding at 5:10pm. So we got to the airport, she checked in, we had some food and played around on the arcade machines. I left her at passport control and headed back to Manchester. Just as I was arriving back, I received a call from Clare saying that her flight had been delayed indefinately and that she had no idea what was going on. Pat on the back for Easy Jet once again. Luckily another flight was diverted and they departed at about 8:30 in the evening. Grrrr what an awful airline they truely are.

On the plaus side, I had a great time with Clare on Monday and can’t wait for her to be back over here permanently in September :D
