Has anyone had recent experience flying with EasyJet from/to Spain? What's it like onboard? Is it full? Do you need to wear masks? Any food or drinks allowed?

Also what's the situation in the airports? Busy? Long queue?

Thinking of going to Spain for a holiday, would like to hear the recent experience. Thanks.

Live in Spain. My parents just returned here after visiting family in U.K.
Flight wasn't full, face masks at all times. Once you arrive in Spain you'd have to keep your mask on until outside and should only remove if you can distance 1.5m.
They bought a sandwich at departure airport to have on board, inflight offered a few choices but nothing like pre-COVID days.

We’re in Spain and flew easyJet. The airport was busy for bag drop and security but not any worse than usual for summer. The flight was almost full and everyone wore masks.
You can eat and drink on the plane.
The most stressful bit was getting the PCR for our DD before we flew.
I’d definitely say go for it! I’m so glad we did as it’s been lovely.

I flew a few days ago with Easy jet to Spain - still here now, Ibiza. Masks are required in the airports, our experience was very quick through check in - we had all documents printed out (vaccine passports and test results for dc). They are strict about masks on the plane unless you are eating or drinking. Plane was half full, plenty of space. In Ibiza airport again, very speedy and smooth arrival and checks done without much waiting. So, basically it's been fine as long as you have everything to hand! We are very glad we came Smile

Went to Palma three weeks ago w EasyJet.

Flights were full both ways
Everyone wore masks apart from when they were eating and drinking
Gatwick was empty
Palma was busy
Very efficient checking of vacc status/PLF arriving at Palma
Woeful/non existent checking at Gatwick on return

Thanks so much for all your sharing. Sounds very positive.
How was the testing in Spain? How much does it cost and is it easy to find one?

Pianoanddrum they are doing the tests here in our hotel in Ibiza, so very easy for us. I have read on other threads the same, or if not in the hotel, nearby. I would think most resorts will either offer it or be able to sign post you to a walk in centre.
