After losing most of their customer base to Covid, the bargain airline is reaching out once more to musicians.

EasyJet is now allowing musicians to place an instrument up to 30 x 117 x 38 cm, including case, into an overhead locker.

However…. in order to do so you have to purchase a more expensive ‘up front’ or ‘extra leg room’ seat.

Details here.

    Not many of those seats around! Anyhow, probably best stay at home. Most destinations in the Amber category.

    This isn’t a positive change…the previous policy allowed instruments including violins in place of hand luggage at no extra charge. Pre pandemic I was doing this several times a month. Now an upfront seat has to be paid for.
