with tighter leg room than the notorious budget airlines
Did you get on the right plane
? Legroom on Jet2 is amongst the best there is
, certainly better than I have experienced on Monarch, Ryanair and Ezy. Or, had Jet2 subbed your flight out to another operator to help out and as such you experienced their seat pitch not Jet2's, because your recollection certainly doesn't match up with real life
.
Which happens on all airlines these days due to the charges for hold luggage. This issue has been addressed in some way with a redesign of the hat racks to take more stuff
, our new aeroplanes will have larger hat racks that should pretty much eradicate the problem altogether
