Morally corrupt easyJet Gov advice changes to 'no travel, unless essential' EasyJet offers 1. Ignore advice - just fly - we do! 2. Change dates at extortionate costs - more than a new ticket! 3. Don't fly, lose your money (refund £14 airport tax) ...now they want help?

If the company has made 24 years of profits, surely some of these profits should have been kept aside in case of poor trading conditions such as these? The banks now have to do this so why don’t airlines like easyJet?

No offence but I have little sympathy for the company who gave away 170m dividends to shareholders at the start then came cap in hand for a loan.

They are 34% owned by a billionaire - why should the tax payer lose out?

Can they not just retrain as something else?

More taxpayers money with another bailout from the UK Government! How does this work when you are behaving so irresponsible. Flying planes against Government advice preventing 1000’s of customers a refund or voucher. Corrupt business model and ZERO customer service....🤬

Thr same airline that quadruples fares when punters are stranded abroad now going cap in hand to the very ppl they rip off..
