Lets put this in context.

Jet2 have made money over the last summer but it really would be hard for them not too. They have a totally captive audience in Leeds with scarcely any competition at all.

They run some of the worst maintained a/c in the business but in doing so save money, ask some of the 757 crews about the condition of the a/c this summer.

They are without a shadow of a doubt one of the worst companies to work for, poorly remunerated with some of the industry's most unethical work pratices ( second only to ryanair) goverened from the top down by an unpleasant megalomaniac.s Talk at the moment is just to temporarily promote F/O to skippers for a few months over the summer then demote them back, what a bunch of c@?~s.

If ryanair wade into leeds they will be out on their ear or at least leeds scheduled ops will be. They have been fortunate with ad hoc charter work and a mail contract but thats it. Other outstations have already been shrinking and will current trading conditions crews will be held even more to ransom.

There are some good guys and girls in this outfit but a huge amount of deadwood and sheer incompetence. Same old equation peanuts = monkeys, I hope a good airline buys them out.
