I am not twisting words - Neither am I guessing as to whether PM got a police caution or not. I would like some evidence.

Forget the altercation between PM and airport staff for a moment. you defend Facelookbovvered stating that Mr Meeson is a risk to the airline.

In the context of the above quote - It seems that Facelookbovvered is saying that Mr Meeson having a pop at pilots is making the airline unsafe for pax.

I don't agree with that, so how can I be twisting words.

Look since this came out on the thread about PM - We have had tirades about the state of Jet2 757 cabins, advice to fly Monarch on a JET2 thread, and even foul mouthed comments that added nothing to the debate.

"as reported" - That's what I have a problem with, no hard evidence he used foul language like some on this thread - **** does not hide the meaning of the word - Maybe twisting it a little.

I know JET2 are not perfect as you are implying I believe - In fact I am in dispute with them at the moment over how their booking engine works since the silly way they give a choice of airport or online check in.

Even (if) PM made obscene comments (unproven as yet), I don't think Jet2 can be held responsible for that as an airline, and a reason to sound of about their a/c and pointed in the direction of Monarch, and posts with language that Mr Meeson is being accused of using.

It seems that Mr Meeson did swear if the Manchester Evening News is to be believed.

Again if the Manchester Evening News has got it right - PM was right to give them a roll-eking, but swearing at staff is wrong.

But again contrary to what posters on this thread have said. The Manchester Evening News says he launched a tirade at his OWN staff.

It really is a very big storm in a very small tea-cup.

I also believe we have to allow for journalistic licence when reading the MEN, like with all the press.

This PM story is now time expired & tedious, give it a rest, same thing going over the same ground.
Who cares? Its his train set & he won't care what you think or say, likewise MOL with his train set.
Please move on..............................

Mr A Tis

The PM part of this thread would have been over and done with eons ago had there not been so many deviations away from the facts,and away from PM for that matter.

I agree in full that some good comments about JET2 would be far more welcome that a minor tiff at MAN T1.
It's hard to believe that this is the JET2 thread.

So, we're all happy now that PM is a complete T**T, and has shown himself to be. I can concur with that

I have found it strange that Jet 2 havent got even a few routes out of Glasgow. Wouldnt expect a base becuase of Edinburgh but they could a few routes

These things take time, judging by the last couple of pages on here, attention may have been turned to the incident at MAN last week etc...

Id say that we could be waiting untill the begining of November to hear any announcement. Remember the two weeks time frame was just a rumour, as is the location of the next base at the moment.

We have had tirades about the state of Jet2 757 cabins,
I'm sure there will be no complaints of this nature on the 757 Hajj trips in November!

I had my first trip on an LS 757 the other week, and to be honest it wasn't bad!

Aircraft was G-LSAC out and back, the new seats are a bit hard for a long sector but otherwise everything was working and the aircraft wasn't in bad shape at all. A very enjoyable trip and the LS cabin crews are some of the hardest grafters I've seen, so if any are reading this well done to you. The only issues I had with the aircraft were smelly toilets which really do need a bit of a steam blasting.

I can see the point of the new lightweight frame seating though, it must save a lot of weight and therefore fuel. Over three hours and backache sets in, but for an average lowcost type sector they are perfectly adequate and look very easy to maintain. It will be interesting to see how a few years in service daily affects them but the red leather facing seems to be robust enough and looks like it can be changed on the line without major surgery.
