I use Gatwick quite often and I always feel the same: despite the huge number of travellers it's almost always well organised and efficient. My general strategy with low-cost airlines is to book a low fare well in advance and add all extra services such as priority security, priority boarding and extra legroom (and occasionally lounge access and pre-bookable food) that make a flight more comfortable. Booking a low-cost flight with all these extras is still much cheaper than booking a domestic or intra-European business class with a legacy carrier, while the comfort, with the exception of the quality of the meal, can be quite similar.

The BoB prices are decent, especially compared to IB.
The Isle of Man looks like an interesting place to spend the week-end.
Huge legroom and a sensible seatmate. How lucky you are!
I think that is a very sensible thing to do, too. Pushing the trolley just in case? Nah.
I love these less frequently reported routes to such picturesque places. Thank you very much for the report and especially for the photos of Isle of Man! :)
