Dictionaries say both are acceptable, but one 'l' is more common in American English, two 'l's in British. It may be more to do with standardised software they use, though you would think there would be local adaptations available. Perhaps someone forgot to RTFM and adjust the settings (see also the US date formats on the Covid dashboards). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You only have to look at their commercial behaviour on the London route to figure that out . 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowman Posted December 19, 2021 Share Posted December 19, 2021 On 12/3/2021 at 9:31 AM, IOM said: Easyjet are charging over £300.00 ( before bags) one way to fly from London in Christmas week with hopeless timings! That compares to Jersey where there are up to three flights and the current maximum one way fare is £153.00. Its time someone found some additional supply on this route to match the demand. Prices have come down. Now vary between £148 and £219. Still high. Easyjet Plus or Flight Club members can get a refund if they paid more.

Easyjet Plus or Flight Club members can get a refund if they paid more. Begs the question why they were charging £300 in the first place ? It clearly was not even the infamous algorithm which causes the seat price to rise as the plane fills out . Frankly makes their commercial behaviour even worse . And as you indicate even at £219 one way that’s high especially when you take into account it does not include bags . I repeat my assertion that something needs to be done to sort out the London situation urgently it’s gone on too long now ! 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
