Jet 2 Announcement to pax: re GPU
Whenever I fly on Jet 2, I have noticed that on arrival, when the aircraft approaches stand there is a PA to pax saying that that a Ground Power Unit is going to be connected and not to unfasten seat belts until this is completed and the fasten seat belts sign is turned off. Why is this bit of extra detail given - from a pax point of view, surely all that is required is a reminder not to stand up until the light is off (for all the obvious reasons) I often see lots of baffled looks around me when people starting asking 'what did he say? whats ground power? etc.'
