AENA, the Spanish airport authority insists on jetbridges. Ryanair aren’t happy about it, but yet continue to fly to AENA airports where there is money to be made. The turns are scheduled at 45 minutes at AENA airports IIRC.

They have built extensions recently to gates on Pier B and C directly prior to the airbridge which are steps/lifts down to the ground so they can board via the forward and rear steps. Pier D (Schengen only) also has the option built in as standard.
I can only presume it's because of RYR is the largest carrier at AGP.
I haven't seen any other carrier besides RYR use this however; EZY, LS, etc, still use the airbridge on the same gates.

Pickle Forks
Any issues with the Jet2.com NGs?
Qantas grounded two NGs now due to the wing pickle fork crack issues.

I think its a bit harsh.............but assume Jet 2 counter claimed v the airport authorities?
Whilst they are on a jet 2 holiday ,we must pay for ground handling at these places. The failure to protect our passengers looks bad on JET2 But the issue was clearly the airports.
Is that anyone's view?

TFS bus crash lawsuit
He said: “This was a very complex case due to the number of people affected as well as the need to liaise with foreign authorities.
“However, I can confirm all 33 cases are now concluded.
“Our clients should have been enjoying their holiday and instead they were left with injuries.
A Jet2 spokesman said: “Although we were not responsible for the accident, which took place between two vehicles driven by airport staff, we do of course acknowledge the distress that it must have caused. We now consider this matter closed.”
I guess the lawyers would have class auctioned the TFS airport authority, the airlines' handling agent (and who drove the buses) and likely Jet2 also as the pax were in their care...
May have been a joint liability settlement.
anyway case closed now
