Hello and welcome to my first flight report ! I'm in Catania Airport to take my flight Easyjet (EZS 1562) to Geneva. For the moment, no delay ! :)
Check-in is done and I just dropped my bag ! Let's head to the security check !
Alright ! Everything is ok. The airport of Catania is modern and clean !
After the security check, the gate area is a bit crowded. But we're in holidays period, that's maybe normal.
Gate 9. Let's head to te gate ! The announcement of the boarding was mentioned before the other passagers go out the plane. Sadly, passengers have to wait 30 minutes at the gate. It isn't a great boarding :(
It's a bus boarding. I don't like this type of boarding. It's long and passengers are so much tight in the bus. Often, there is no air conditioning on board.
Here is my plane. Registration : HB-JXK operated by EasyJet Switzerland. We had to wait another 10 minutes in the bus before passengers board in the plane. Definitly, it's a bad boarding and we had a delay of 20 minutes :(
So, I'm seating in the row 9 and I have two windows :D. The crew are nice and friendly !
The legroom is bad ! I prefer the classic airlines. There is more legroom and the seats are more comfortable. In conclusion, I don't like low cost airlines.
Nice view of the runway 08/26 :D !
Take-off with view of the Mount Etna (3330 M or 10, 912 ft) :) !
Once again the view of the Etna, the city of Catania and the Mediterranean Sea !
The board menu
The Safety card
The inflight magazine
And the airsickness bag are provided in front of you in the seat pocket.
Great view of the Mont Blanc (4808 M or 15,777 ft) :D !
Welcome in Geneva, Switzerland ! Sadly, it's cloudy :(
So, our ride is finish with the Airbus A320. It was still a pleasure to fly with this aircraft !

Conclusion
In conclusion, I find the legroom too bad but it's a low cost airlines. It's coherent with the price (130 CHF round trip GVA-CTA/CTA-GVA). Seats were uncomfortable but the crew was friendly. The boarding was the worse thing in this flight report. It wasn't organized. Finally, I landed in Geneva with a delay of 30 minutes.
N.B: Sorry if my English isn't perfect ! :D

Hello and welcome aboard Flight-report.com! I liked your report and your photos. Don't worry about your English, it's fine :) Having too flown on Easyjet recently I can pretty much agree with much of what you said. And as you wrote, there are things that are just not as good as with legacy/full-service carriers, but LCCs are cheaper - so as long as they're reasonable operations and don't treat their customers (or employees) like garbage, I'm okay with that. I still prefer full-service carriers, though :D
Hello Manbou ! Yes, I agree with you and I prefer also classical airlines with something is provided to drink and to eat. Thanks for your feedback :D !!
Hi Flodsbto, thanks for sharing your first FR here with us! Legroom does look very tight indeed--would you mind sharing how tall you are to get a better idea of the legroom? Lovely views of Mt Etna on takeoff!
