Channex101 you do make some very interesting points regarding LS operating long haul sched services to east coast USA. Reconfiguring aircraft to gain more space is a great idea, but I think the concern is that the airport authority and quite alot of punters would be more satisfied with an airline which has a connection network out of say NYC. It is only my opinion. Charters longhaul wise are all well and good, but the scheduled services generate so much more, including business investment, inbound tourism etc. Jet2 do seem to have their 757 fleet under control now, but yes delays do seem to be highlighted on here and certain airlines get the main targeting. Anyone remember FJE, they were always targeted by the local media, now it appears it is J2 who is in the sights for delay reporting!?
