Avantatges: Comfortable, friendly service on the plane.
Desavantatges: Connection issues from previous flight. Connecting ground staff didn't seem to have their game together. In all fairness, it was after midnight and I don't think it was connected to the Aegean airline. More like airport security.
Desavantatges: Could not check in online
Comfortable and on time
Avantatges: Late at the airport but they managed to get us all through and boarded on time
Desavantatges: Too many steps especially at Birmingham
Avantatges: Crew was good, boarding was good. On time.
Desavantatges: All food/drinks are chargeable, but they will not accept credit cards without a raise number on the front so I couldn't use my travel credit card and then I couldn't use my debit card because they said "often the debit card will not run through while in the air"...fortunately I had some Euros.
No frills but excellent
Avantatges: The crew were helpful and friendly
Desavantatges: Nothing to report. Very efficient
One of the better DEEP DISCOUNT airlines
Avantatges: Left on time. Arrived on time. Clean. Everything worked. Competent and friendly crew. Great price. Yes, we definitely would fly with Jet2 again.
Desavantatges: Really packed us in. Crew kept on offering items for sale. But, it is a deeep discount carrier so we were not surprised.
Not Jet2's fault blame the airports
Avantatges: Good flight (when we eventually got airborne.
Friendly cabin crew
Desavantatges: Last minute gate changes at Heraklion meant lots of confusion & frustration plus late departure.
Edinburgh airport is a joke since its recent upgrades, plane sent to wrong bay caused delays getting off then baggage handlers are slow beyond useless, seem to think they are doing everyone a big favour & will do things when it suits them. No help or information from airport staff who promptly vanished at the 1st sign of trouble.
Edinburgh airport really needs to have a long hard look at itself.
Avantatges: Nice clean plane. Short flight good check in, comfortable seat. Nice staff
Desavantatges: No entertainment
Late
Desavantatges: Timing and space
Not flying with Jet2.com again
Avantatges: Crew were polite, better than on the outward flight from Paris CDG to Leeds, but seemed more interested in chatting to each other than to reassure passengers about the long delays. Once underway, the flight progressed well.
Desavantatges: When a 30 minute delay was announced (13.45 instead of 13.15), I was fairly philosophical. However, we didn't board until 13.45. Once settled in our seats, another 25 minutes went by when the plane did not move. No information's given.
I asked a member of the cabin crew what was going on who said she didn't know anything. I then heard her ask (presumably the captain) on the intercom if he could make an announcement as 'passengers were enquiring' We were then informed that we would have a further delay of up to an hour. We eventually took off at 16.00, over two hours after scheduled time.
Thank goodness, I had left plenty of time for my connecting train. I was equally unimpressed for different reasons with Jet2.com on the outward flight on 12 July. I will not be flying with them again.
Convenient flight spoilt by patronising and irritating announcements
Avantatges: The convenience of the route
Desavantatges: The thumping 'music' as we boarded, the over-jolly announcements which treated the passengers as if they were all mentally deficient or poorly educated. The information they conveyed was clear and comprehensive and obviously, safety instructions are crucial, but the format and tone of delivery were so patronising I thought they were a parody.
They also assumed everybody was coming back to the UK after their holiday - the flight had a good proportion of French passengers and some of us don't live in the UK. Make the announcements more neutral.
I fly with a lot of no-frills lines, especially Ryanair and EasyJet as well as the larger carriers such as Air France, BA, SAS and Air Canada, but I have never come across such grating and irritating announcements. I will think twice before booking another flight with them rather than endure this again.
Avantatges: I actually found the seat quite comfortable, compared with other low-cost airlines.
I was glad that i could take my hand luggage onto the plane, allowing me to exit without having to wait at the carousel.
There was plenty of space in the overhead locker.
I liked the sense of humour in the announcements - it proves that even serious things can be said in a pleasant manner
