A lot written about the 70% contracts, they seem unfair especially to maybe some FO's being upgraded to them etc. However look at the big picture the financial world is walking a knife edge, Jet2 has done well by managing all its costs and that includes crew. The majority of Jet2 work is summer based hence the 70% , ie winter is very ad-hoc charter orientated. The thing is you know the deal when you join, its not hidden in small print. Its this management of costs that has kept Jet2 in a positive position so even though its painful for the pay check it makes sure we have a pay check.
