The biggest problem is the fees. Easyjet charges a ludicrous amount just to bring a normal sized cabin bag. BA charges a £50 admin fee per person to change a flight (I'm sure the person doing the admin is not being paid that much!).
And if you forget to check in online you need to pay another 50-60€.
Oh but you don't have a reserved seat, so you can check in only up to 24 hours before the flight.
If you want to sit with your family, that's another 100€.
They are getting so ridiculous that Wizzair staff started measuring people's luggage and charge them extra fees at the airport. Oh your bag is 2cm above the limit, 60€.
It is really disgusting practice and every time I need to fly I grit my teeth if they will find something to charge me extra.
