Cancelled flights

Does anyone know why the Man - Ace and Man - Alc are shown as cancelled today? This is shown on Man's departure pages.

Coaches to Leeds maybe for the passengers?

[IB4138]

If you bothered to look at MAN departures, you would find that both flights have been rescheduled to earlier times and have not been cancelled.

Well spotted but I think you mean rescheduled to a later departure time.

Departures Board has been updated because they were showing as operating earlier than before.
Presumably the wrong flight had been cancelled!!

Cancelled

Well the word "cancelled" showed on the board, so that, in the dictionary, means just that - cancelled!

Sorry to have asked IB4138.

Quite often if a flight is rescheduled both flights appear on the board with the incorrect
one showing cancelled

LS891 to Arrecife 13.00 shows cancelled. 15.35 shows wait in lounge.
LS879 to Alicante 15.30 shows cancelled. 17.45 shows wait in lounge.

Would it not be easier for everyone if the original flights showed 'rescheduled to' or 'now departing at' instead of using cancelled. This practice has caused problems in the past on arrivals.

I notice that Jet2 have increased the price of pre-purchased on-board meals by 25% to £10 per flight.

That is an absolute joke and unfair to anyone ordering one as they are absolutely not worth this, £7 was steep enough. Save your money and get something at the airport instead now i think. Could this be a move to discourage the sale of them? or are they actually going to give exta/improve them I wonder...

This is in line with most charter carriers...

At my airline we usually charge £6 - £7 each way shorthaul (depends on the actual route which price for some reason), £7.50 each way medium haul including canaries i think and longhauls now included either booknig flight only or through your tour operator. Having flow LS I still feel £20 for a return small portion meal is pretty steep!

Has nobody heard of a packed lunch?

Lets get this right, as with everything (baggage, extra legroom etc) Jet2 charge on three scales (Low - short routes i.e. AMS, Medium - i.e. AGP and High - i.e. SSH)

There has been a 50p per flight increase in meal costs. For example:
ALC - was £7.50 each way, now £8.
PFO - was £12 each way, now £12.50.

The meals Jet2 serve are a dam sight better value than most airlines, plus you get a complimentary drink with each meal.

As usual people getting the wrong end of the stick with wrong facts and jumping to the wrong conclusion. At the end of the day you don't have to buy a meal... and who cares if Thomson's carge is £6-£7. You are not going to suddenly stop the whole booking process and not fly with Jet2 because Thomson's meals are a measly £1 more! Who cares Jet2 are a LOW COST AIRLINE!

Actually i don't care at all to be honest. You seem a little defensive and worked up over this and theres no need. What i was doin was showing to MUFC_fan similar charges by the charters in comparison. Having flown with LS the meals are hardly any different in terms of quantity and what you get as with what you do with any airline these days, so thats the reason I was commenting on the price, wondering if there was going to be anything changed or added to make them better. Again i suppose not really bothered but for some people, if this is what they want to discuss then that's fine. No need to make a deal if they are.

As for the Low fares well that's debatable, I suppose they are friendly though

Food

Hi

I had a premium meal on a recent Jet2 service - pre booked, both out and return. I will not do it again. Very poor in terms of quality and quantity. The outbound meal was something that looked like meat, and the return was chicken. The return did taste like chicken though. The best part however was a mini Toblerone. Overall, outward consisted of...

Portion of pasta
bread roll
meat stuff????
hot drink
crackers
Toblerone
Some sort of apple desert.

The inbound was similar, with the meat looking substance replaced with chicken.

Next time, we will set off earlier and have a Little Chef en route, avoiding airport prices!

[conti onepass]

i cant fault jet2 for their cabin crew and service, but ive seen people getting their meals, in a white slim box with the food on top of it, does not look very nice.

When I posted that the cost of a meal had increased by 25% to £10, I was comparing the price applicable on the MJV route this past September with the ACE route next June.

I was unaware that Jet2 have a pricing policy according to route therefore my posting may be misleading for which I apologise.

The following prices apply to next June:
MJV - £8
ACE - £10
SSH - £12.50

I also note that there is a 'Fuel Supplement' on the SSH route (of the 3 routes quoted) only. Any idea why this should be?

Jet 2's Website Too Slow!

Every time I go onto the site it takes forever to load up, And when I click onto a 'Destination' it sometimes takes a good 4/5 minutes?

On a few occasions it has 'Kicked' me off completely, And I have to start all over again!!

But never have any trouble with TOM, TCX, ZB sites.

Does anyone else get this problem?

LS may lose bookings if they don't sort this out soon?

[LPFR]

Jet2 may lose bookings as well if they don't improve the online check-in facility, especially regarding the seating. I mean, either include the "seating selection" fee from the start for those choosing online check-in, or seat the damn people together.
Why on earth would the first people to check-in (a family) be allocated 35AB & 35DE? Yeah, at least 2 seats are together and they are in the same row, but is still a bit ridiculous. It's been happening constantly and it's not funny at the airport check-in. Plus, for those checking-in at the airport there's virtually no seats together left either to allocate.

Yes, they could all pay to pre book seats together. But it's not very costumer friendly if you ask me.
