Flyjet
FJE may not be the most reliable of airlines at present, however give them a break. There are a small outfit trying to make a go of things in an extremely difficult environment. They have had 2 major delays from NCL recently and the press now seem to hound them and blow stories way out of proportion. Just reading the BBC internet site and in the story is the statement,
"At one point 20 of the 220 passengers stormed off FJE606 to Paphos because of the delay."
Yes I may well think these particular passengers did make alternative arrangements, but 'stormed off' is stretching it a bit.
Nobody seems to have commented on Flyjets reasonably good performance from NCL over last summer and the winter, very few delays occurred and judging by comments and reviews by passengers on such sites as carsurvey and skytrax, their onboard service and Cabin Crew are very highly thought off. Not many airlines receive such comments on these areas.
Also, this summer two other major charter carriers have suffered extensive delays but have the local press jumped on them or have the airport commented on their performance? NO. Give Flyjet a chance to redeem themselves and go out on a positive note.
They are still hundreds better than some of the charter carriers NCL has seen in the past, Nordic East anyone????
