Great flight just took some time to board even when lining up early for the flight, even taking off took longer then expected.

Great flight just took some time to board even when lining up early for the flight, even taking off took longer then expected.

ontime and super quick boarding and disembarking. I made it in 6 min from airplane through passport control to the train platformin Cologne. Amazingly quick airport.

Boarding was fast and efficient. The crew was super friendly. Since it’s a budget airline and it’s a short flight, I can’t expect food or entertainment.

If you buy a cabin luggage, but don’t need it for your kids, so you will end up with mixed priorities. And you will need to use non priority line

Boarding waiting outside in storm and rain is not OK

East check in and security. They are always delayed though. ALWAYS!

Amazed at huge number of people who hadn’t booked cabin bags with big troller cases and rucksacks, not being stopped, what’s the point in following rules or paying more if you don't have to bother?

It was a short flight (1.2h), and everything went smoothly.

Very good, everything went straight forward, boarding, during the flight, landing and all on time Well done

Due to long security check and no last call announcements from Gate staff, my family and 12 other passengers missed the flight.
