We've got to fly with easyjet in few months and trying to suss out what our requirements'll be luggage wise (have so far avoided air travel with bugglet who'll be 20mths when we go).


Any top tips on condensing luggage & do we have to pay for buggie/book it in with luggage or keep it till the gate?


Thanks in advance x

Easy jet are fine with baby equipment. You don't have to pay extra for the buggy and can take it to the gate. You can also take another piece without charge ie a car seat or travel cot.

We flew EASYJET in September, 2 under 2 and a double buggy.


Couldn't fault them, really good.


Buggy folded up at gate and priority boarding. Didn't have to pay for buggy ( you can take two items of cot/cars eat/buggy per child I think).


Worth taking a sling as you may have to wait for buggy other end.


I was really pleasantly surprised

Re sleeping gear we've got a lightweight travel cot by phil and teds that we pack inside one of our bags. http://www.mothercare.com/Phil-Teds-Traveller-Travel-Cot/dp/B003VKT6RE. It's not the cheapest but has been great for travelling. I think little life do a similar tent like one. Would have happily lent it to you but will have left East Dulwich by the time you do your trip. :(

We've never paid for speedy boarding because they let families with children under (?) 6 or 8 - cant recall exact age - board as priority after the speedy boarders & we have always got seats we are happy with that way.


The year I was pregnant they even let me on with the families - I pointed at my bump (quite big) & said "does this count?" and they waived me through!!

Couldnt fault them! I was concerned to be flying Easyjet with 2 under 2, had no real choice as there were no scheduled flights to our destination.


They were really good and extremely helpful. They came to us to ensure we boarded before anyone else that wasn't speedy boarding (v few were) and advised the flight wasn't full so not to let anyone sit with us (like anyone would want to), thus ensuring a seat for our 1 year old.


We flew from Gatwick.

    • According to what I can see online, Dynamic Vines and Cave de Bruno sell totally different kinds of wine to each other.  Dynamic Vines  "work with independent winemakers who produce outstanding wine using sustainable practices in the vineyard and minimal intervention in the cellar".  Cave de Bruno specialises in French wines and spirits from small independent producers. So two different USPs, and no doubt two different but overlapping customer bases who can afford these wines. Probably different again to the people mainly  shopping for wine at Majestic or the Co op. On the other hand, the two empanada shops appear on the face of it to be selling virtually identical products. But time will tell, won't it? Let's see how they are both doing in - say - a couple of years' time. Impossible, of course, to compare that with how they would have done if there had been only one of them. I just feel more  sorry for the original one than for  the one which can apparently already afford to have a number of shops in places like Mayfair and Highgate. I'm tempted to buy something there every week, and I don't even like that kind of pastry 🤣
    • Not only can he turn olive oil into Vermouth, but also water into a wine. A true miracle worker.  I wouldn't say a wine shop sells a wide variety of things - and there are two right next to each other.  And once upon a time, upmarket pizza shops were very specific. So were burritos etc. These Argentinian cornish pasties are clearly becoming mainstream; we should consider ourselves lucky to be witnessing this exciting upward trend within our lifetimes and on OUR HIGH STREET. We can tell our grandkids that we remember when there was no internet and no empanadas.  I'm sure that if the family empanada people have a good business head, they'll be able to ride this wave of competition, just like Bruno has. 
    • Very economical. Are you available for events? I've got a gathering of 5000 coming up soon. What could you knock up with two little fishes and five loaves of bread? Cod in breadcrumbs? Fish finger sandwiches? Spanish-style croquetas de bacalao with a Romesco sauce? It's BYOB for beer, so there's no need to worry about that and I've managed to do an unbelievable deal on water and wine. Drop me a DM on here or ask for Dave or Jesus (pronounced 'Hay-Zooze') in The Herne, left hand side of the bar.
