Incidents and accidents

On December 31, 2012, one of EasySky's planes veered off the runway while landing in San Pedro Sula and landed in a ditch. There were no fatalities and only one person was hurt.[2]

EasySky and its parent Global Air were linked to the May 2018 Cubana de Aviación Flight 972 tragedy, in which 112 people died, through the use of a wet lease aircraft.[3]

In 2018 easyGroup, licensor of the easyJet brand began legal proceedings against EasySky and Colombia-based EasyFly over use of the "easy" prefix.[4]
