Why Easyjet et al are evil

[fingertrouble]

This is why. And Ryanair are far far worse.

What made me laugh:

A spokesman for easyJet said: "We do not have any record of the passenger's request to carry medical materials on board the flight.

"However as a gesture of goodwill easyJet has refunded the passenger for the cost of his flight."

What about the £14k for a private jet? FFS. Incompetence, sheer incompetence. By the way I'm flying to Brussels on bmi and will only fly Easyjet or Ryanair as a total last resort. Especially Ryanair who show a total contempt for customers and any idea of social responsibility or climate change.

Probably some NHS/University/Civil service drive to save money.

I doubt though the others would be that better, though. Jobsworths the lot of em.

It was actually for a project in Barcelona. A woman who had her breasts removed for cancer had some thighs stem cells cultivated in Bristol to generate adipous tissue to use in the breasts.
Easyjet sais that it was forbidden luggage, period.
Now, why did the use this? It seems that it's common practise with "regular" airlines, provided it's a certified system. However, only Easyjet fly to Barcelona from Bristol so it was their only choice
