curious thread

forgive me while i just bend over to vomit.

is this some kind of PR stunt to get people on side after the fiasco with Phillip Meeson dissing the French?

I agree Jet2 is a pretty good success story - they have concentrated on niche routes with little or no competition - that is the reason for their success and nothing more. There is no magic ingrediant. They have as many tech/delays as any other airline - probably more than some.

They are successful by accident rather than by design. They don't even have a route development team. Maybe not being top-heavy (like easyJet is) will help still further in generating profits.

Anyway i don't see a sustainable future for them unless they continue to expand at a rate the same as other LCC's and add newer cheaper and more fuel efficient aircraft. (i.e lower cost per seat mile)
