Jet2 4
Note your comments Paully, am travelling GLA-HER in August on I understand a B738, hopefully the mixed reports about seating comfort are favourable for me. First time on Jet2 since a Palma trip on a B733 in the early days of Globespan/Jet2.
Then again, when I was younger my very first GLA-HER was on BY on a B732, though I was, in the Fast Show tradition, very very drunk....

Cannot enlighten you about the Privilege Style interiors but several Spanish La Liga clubs use one of the B757s or the 767 to take there teams to away matches in La Liga, so I would say if it is good enough for them it should be good enough for you!

On line check in "not available"
Just tried to check in on line for tomorrow's NCE-MAN flights. Not available due to the requirement "to maintain operation flexibility".
WTF. Does that mean?
Dont look forward to the usual handling agent chaos at the check in desks.

Go on Priveledge Style's website. It's got some interior shots. Reminds me of American pre 2000. May not look cool but looks comfy enough. Let's face it, with most airlines these days in main cabin it's the same sh-t but with a different uniform and seat cover. I've seen their 757s up close these days and whilst their colour scheme looks like something from MS Paint 95 they looked in good condition.

Operational flexibility??????
The NCE to MAN flight on tomorrow (Thursday ) cant do on line check "For operational reasons" It has been suggested that the type has yet to be decided. Not unreasonable. However, as a wheeze, I decided to try and book another seat. Results: Flight full. So the type has been decided. It seems the " take me there " "great deal friendlier" chickens are coming home to roost. Time for a PM rant perhaps.

Im no expert Ivan but maybe its scheduled for a 737-300 which is full but may change to either a 800 or 757, hence they cent take any more bookings in case they do use the smaller aircraft

G-LSAE (LS517) has diverted into Sofia while running PFO-NCL, any news on how she's doing and the nature of the incident? Looks like a decompression due to the rate of descent?

Jet2 already have Titan Airways Boeing 757-200, G-ZAPX on lease based at LBA due to a shortage of aircraft. Wonder if they'll have to lease in a further aircraft to replace the tech G-LSAE now as well tomorrow?

Where are the PS 757s at the moment, could one of those be brought in? Also if G-POWJ is available they could utilise her but G-POWH today at least was working for Thomas Cook and has been for a little while due to their staffing issues.
AH operated the NCL-FAO-NCL route a few days back, also positioning in from MAN with only an hour 30 delay so is there any slack in the MAN schedule?

The 'operational flexibility' means the only seats left are on emergency exits, and as you have not selected seats the check-in agent needs to see you in person to confirm you are an able bodied passenger.
Not a con/money making scheme, just the airline making sure the correct passengers are sat in the correct seats...
