However they are far from immune to the airport issues issues especially at their home base , plenty queues on the first waves out into the street and “half way down Whitehouse Lane”
Through at least they are delivering on their programme unlike those other carriers and thats a good thing sure enough
BA only have engineers on site. No other staff at all. Jet2 have only been having problems with airport specific related issues caused by security and immigration.
