DGAC ordered/requested/pleaded FR to cancel around 20% of flights to/from French airports
Definitely more on time stat creation at the expense of passengers under the guise of French ATC.

Lets not go there and compare JET 2 and RYAN on cancelling flights.
Last French strike had a daughter on a JET2 plane to PALMA and a daughter on a RYAN to FARO. Early morning from LBA.
Not one RYAN flight left , but the JET2 one did.
Cancelled flight means the CUSTOMER has to claim the money back and guess what some 30% never do !
Faro from Leeds easy missing France. Palma not so easy.
The Captain and crew on Ryan do not always get paid. There is some rule about if you board , but others will know better than I.

EMA-HER
What happened to the EMA - HER LS625 to make the local news during a diversion to Manchester?
Departed East Mids late at 17.40 went North West towards Manchester on its departure squawk, then turned back south towards East Mids at 19000ft before squawk changed to 7700 at 18.00. Then held over the Peake District before diverting to Manchester landing at around 18.55.
As usual FR24 replay helped with some of the above.
It actually made the local TV News before it landed at Manchester apparently.
It was a 738 this time.

Information
Hi I am flying with my family to Feuerteventura and think (by googling it) I am flying on 737-800 with Jet 2 from Manchester. I suffer with claustrophobia (only recently started) and after a chat with a Jet 2 advisor she has booked me row 15 on the way out and row 34 on the way back. She said these are by the emergency exits so will be behind the row with extra leg room seats - which may help for me to see a bit of space in front of me (i'm hoping). I can't find a picture of the plane so I can get a view of the seating or what teh place is going to look like and the seats - as I am now worried that she has given me duff info and that I have paid extra for these seats for nothing. I'm not normally a mad woman but my kids will be with me and I don't want to be scaring them with me having an attack and being escorted embarrasingly from the place...can anyone give me some advice please and if anyone knows what the places are like insude could they give me some info..thanks

The doors on the 757 aircraft are at row 12/14 and emergency exits at row 33. So sat in row 15 and 34, you will in the next row behind the emergency exit seats, as the Jet2 agent told you, these seats are good if you are claustrophobic as there is plenty of space around.
