Yes, they were technical problems. At least someone can post something sensible! I was merely making a point that Jet2 seem to have been plagued with some technical issues on particular aircrafts that are getting quite long in the tooth (G-CELO for example yesterday, 30 years old, and G-CELY at KRK a few weeks ago too which is a 31 year old airframe).
In regards to the saga reply, from another member, it does seem to be an ongoing saga and a former colleague, who now works for LS, has advised there has been numerous discussions internally regarding this.
Obviously, NCL has some of the new 737s during winter, but during the summer months we seem to be lumbered with the older airframes which do tend to have suffered quite a few issues.
