F*$!ing SleazyJet!!!

What goes up must come down like my mood. In SleazyJet's case they just won't go anymore. They have in their infinite business wisdom decided to stop the Gatwick - Helsinki route and I received an email saying:

Dear KB,

We are really sorry to inform you that your easyJet flights, 8965 to HEL on 13/07/2011 and 8964 to LGW on 22/07/2011 have been cancelled. We understand that cancelling your flights will cause you inconvenience and we are very sorry when things don't run as scheduled.

We always aim to provide the best possible experience when flying with easyJet by assessing our network and business opportunities to manage a portfolio of routes fitting with consumer demand. Due to weak demand from Helsinki we have taken the decision to regrettably cancel our services for that destination. Last flight operating dates will respectively be on 13 June for Manchester, 22 June for London/ Gatwick and 7 July for Paris/ CDG. Flights to and from Helsinki before these dates are wholly unaffected.

We will do all we can to help you make quick and suitable alternative arrangements and have detailed the options available to you below.

Once again, we are very sorry for the inconvenience this will have caused you.



You can imagine how pleased I am about this retail experience. Now I will have to return to the extortionate price proper air line and depart with almost triple the money I paid for the SleazyJet flight if I want to do this trip in July :(

Still, no one died and it is Friday. There will be red vino later.
