We usually board using both front and rear doors of the aircraft. Your boarding pass will usually tell you which one to use. Please also follow the signs at the gate and any directions from our ground crew. If you need help getting on board and to your seat, please see Special assistance.

Boarding an easyJet flight in 2026 is a structured, group-based process managed via the easyJet app. After passing through the gate, passengers are divided into groups: Group A (Speedy Boarding), which includes those with "Extra Legroom" or "Up Front" seats and easyJet Plus members, boards first. They are followed by families with young children and then the remaining passengers in numerical groups. Because easyJet often uses "walk-boarding" or remote stands, you will frequently walk across the tarmac or take a bus to the aircraft. You must show your digital boarding pass and ID twice—once at the gate and once at the aircraft stairs. In 2026, easyJet is very strict about cabin bag sizes; if you haven't paid for a "Large Cabin Bag," your bag must fit under the seat in front of you. If it's too big, it will be placed in the hold at the gate for a significant fee, so using the app's "Bag Scanning" tool before you leave home is the best way to ensure a smooth boarding experience.
