Continuing off-topic as this thread has become the "TUI Airways delays" thread, easyJet cancelled over 100 flights into and out of Gatwick between last Thursday and Sunday due to and as a knock on from the thunderstorms on Thursday evening. TUI delayed one flight from Thursday until Friday. And this is what happens when easyJet cancel your flight

For more "unacceptable", than a few 24 hour delays every season.
But that is exactly where you’re wrong. Jet2 DO have a sustainable business model which is outdoing TUI & TCX. I would much rather be a Jet2 passenger than a TUI passenger this summer that is for sure!

It is all good and well saying Easyjet cancel flights, BA do etc but that isn’t a direct comparison in my opinion. TUI have had things out of their control, such as the MAX issues, and, you’re right, they don’t cancel flights but this still doesn’t change the fact from a customer service perspective that they have been poor with some really bad delays. Customers choose two things: service and cost.
