Not so EasyJet
Posted in Western Europe by Dakota on April 7, 2009
The following was sent to me earlier today and it details one woman’s horrid experience with EasyJet. I have to say that the service given by budget airlines from the UK is really poor. People like to make excuses for them saying, ‘you get what you pay for’ and other things along those lines, but that’s really not a fair characterization. The fact is I’ve flown on budget airlines in all parts of the world, and they have all provided better and more courteous service than budget airlines from the UK sphere of influence.
Name: Rachael
Message: I am contacting you regarding easyjet and the way they treated me whilst travelling with them recently. I have had not much luck in getting a decent response from them - having sent 4-5 letters and emails to their customer services department, and all senior members of management. I have had replies to my emails but they always seem to skip past the crucial points - and ultimately in effect unfairly lay the blame on me.
In short - I broke my arm on a snowboarding holiday, and when I came to check in at Lyon airport I was forced to remove my cast completely (with a stanley knife borrowed from a newsagent) whilst the check-in members of staff were very rude, obnoxious and seemed to find the whole situation very funny. These staff members broke easyJet’s regulations which state “Passengers travelling with a plaster cast that has been fitted for less than 48 hours then the cast needs to be split (the split need to run along the entire length of the cast) If the plaster cast been fitted for more than 48 hours there is no requirement for the cast to be split.” (http://www.easyjet.com/EN/Book/regulations.html)

Tourism to Antarctica is about to get a little harder
Posted in Antarctica by Dakota on April 7, 2009
President Obama’s administration is going to propose amendments to the Antarctic Treaty at a conference today. They’re seeking to not only mandate the treaty under international law instead of its current state of voluntary enforcement, but they will also be pushing to limit tourism to the continent in an effort to make sure operators comply with strict environmental regulations.
The proposed amendment will require ships visiting Antarctica to be carrying less than 500 persons, restrict landings to one vessel at a time, allow no more than 100 persons on the continent at any one time, and also mandate at least one guide for every 20 persons landed.
