‘Easyjet’ were the first British airline to join the ‘cheap flight’ revolution in air travel that was pioneered by ‘Southwest Airlines’ in the United States of America.
I well remember going to Rome with ‘easyjet’ for about a tenner (single) and to Dublin with ‘Ryanair’ for £1 (return).
Starting out with a fleet of Boeing 737’s, ‘easyjet’ quickly switched to the Airbus A319 and more recently to the larger Airbus A320.
They are currently going through a livery change although they still retain the basic orange and white colour scheme.
It would seem that ‘easyjet’ have saved a bob or two on paint. With the new livery, the forward fuselage remains in light grey. Only the rear fuselage has been painted white.
