Can i ask why you even care if the MJV flights are delayed each day? In what way does it have an affect on your life?!
Jet2 are still known for there on time schedule. They are among the best, and are one of the best budget airlines. They don't do much wrong!
I used to work at LBA and saw a lot of Jet2 aircraft go tech, but they had the issues resolved quickly and passengers were offered free drinks and what not, so were not too unhappy. In comparison, the based Thomas Cook plane was once running 14 hours behind schedule about 4 days later it was still 8 hours behind schedule and it finally made up its time when it has the sunday night "off" when it had no flight. Does a delay like that bother you? Jet2 even often helped out Thomas Cook with extra flights when it went tech, so there not the devil!

Jet 2 were guilty of a major cock-up on MJV flight scheduling this year, which they now appear to have taken the steps to rectify.
Past records count for nothing with passengers, who have been delayed on these and subsequent later flights on the same aircraft on the day, especially when Jet 2 have been seeking to blaim others for their mistake.
It should be over, if the correct steps have been taken.
Now Jet 2 have to rebuild the reputation that you say they held.

Same thing happened to me, although going to Pisa. I twice requested the free flights to which the reply took over the maximum 21 days stated on the winners website. In the mean time I decided to book with Ryanair at a very good price and at slightly more reasonable flight times because the hotel prices were steadily increasing every other day. The day after booking guess what appeared in my inbox...
Unfortunately just leave the free winning flight as it does state clearly on the winners terms and conditinos that the free flight is unchnagable (unless paying any admin fees) and that they will not refund any unused flights already booked with Jet2.
I know they had thousands of winners... but i really don't see how it can take a month to see if there is availibility on a flight... a better system should be used if they ever do this competition again i think!

Non-refundable airline
As far as i am aware, Jet2 along with most low fare airlines is a non re-fundable airline anyway, whether you have checked-in or not. The only reason they will give you a refund is if the flight is changed or cancelled by themselves.

Jet2 free flights
Maybe the answer is to request a flight outside peak times to avoid disappointment.The flights are valid until March next year.
I requested flights from LBA to SSH next feb and got them within 21 days,for the first date I chose.
Yeah I have to pay some ridiculous charge to take a suitcase and reserve a seat,but it still cheaper than paying for the flights in the first place!

All of my requests were outside peak times and inbetween all the dates specified with Jet2. Hence why i was confirmed 27 days after submitting.
Great to see you got flights to SSH though. These must be the most expensive flights on the LS network so great saving even if you do have to pay for baggage etc.

Returning to the Murcia thread. If you don't want a FIVE hour outbound and FOUR hour return delay on a long weekend trip choose a more reputable carrier.
I know I will.

wow....a whole 2hrs to IBZ without IFE - whatever will SAM-EMA do???
will the world end maybe??
people sit in their cars longer without HAVING to watch some mindless crap on a tv screen.....
why do people panic so much about IFE and whether it is available or not....
maybe SAM-EMA is travelling with LS to avoid IFE...i would!!
Its a holiday....forget the tv!!
