Download the easyJet app

Plan a trip, manage a booking, check in, and obtain real-time updates on a flight – the award-winning easyJet app is designed to ensure travellers have a smooth journey from start to finish making it the ideal travel companion to make the most of your trip and is packed with advice and tools like live flight Information, gate alerts and an easy way to manage your booking. easyJet’s Flight Tracker tool, available on the app as well as online, provides real-time flight information direct from the airline’s operations control centre.

Bag a quicker journey through the airport

easyJet’s free Twilight Bag Drop service at London Gatwick, Bristol and Manchester allows customers on early morning flights to drop their hold bags off the evening before they fly, saving time for their journey through the airport by skipping bag drop and heading straight to security on their morning of travel.

easyJet also offers a range of free luggage options for families travelling with young children, such as a free baby changing bag for infants and for every infant or child travelling, customers can bring up to two items free of charge to go into the hold including travel cots, pushchairs, buggies, car seats, collapsible or non-collapsible prams, booster seats and/or baby back carriers. These can be checked in for free at bag drop or if customers need to use any of these to get to the gate they’ll be collected before boarding their flight to collect at the baggage carousel on arrival. Infants with booked seats and children over two years old also have the same cabin bag and hold luggage allowance as adults.

And customers who need help choosing the right bag for the trip can use easyJet’s AR cabin bag sizer via the easyJet app which uses augmented reality technology, enabling customers to scan their bag to ensure it’s the right size.

Need help or advice?

easyJet has a range of services in place to provide additional help to customers on the day of travel including special assistance for those who require it and has recently launched a range of new initiatives to provide extra support to customers flying this summer. The airline has invested in more customer service staff than ever before – recruiting an additional 350 call centre staff and opening a new call centre in Milan – and has extended customer service opening hours to serve passengers from early morning to late at night, with advisors now available every day from 6am – 11pm.
