In defence of YL-LCV lol

Having railed on about the lousy timekeeping of YL-LCV on the fortnightly Sunday LS1229, BHX-FUE a word in praise, sort of.
We flew on June 17 - massively late t/o again (75 mins) no doubt due to the Norwegian chaos of the previous day, diverting it to MAN and late repo back to BHX, it recovered to only 25mins late in FUE. Excellent. But then again, it never takes 4hr20 anyway, the declared flight time.
Returned on Wednesday LS1230 on newish JZHM, 20 mins late on t/o, even though the incoming LS1229 landed on time but the red-eye back to BHX 15mins early.
Cabin crews both ways lovely, friendly as always but I'm beginning to hate Jet2s horrid mock-pop background music. I know its supposed to mark the Brand as fresh, modern, 'groovy', of the people even, but its a dreadful dirge and is now getting on my wick as are the pre-recorded Announcements with their over-excited voices.
However 6 flights in this year (replacing dear old Monarch) I am enjoying it all.
