My first flight with Easy jet, have flown many times with Ryanair. Plane was not full in either direction, plenty of room. Good service and exceptionally smooth take off from Berlin, whether this was down to the plane type Airbus 319 or weather conditions or pilot I don't know. But it was a very good take off.

Things are a bit too cramped at Schonefeld no room to sit down at the gate for example. Am glad easy jet divide people into 4 groups for boarding good idea as it limits the scrum for seats on the plane.
