Is Jet2 rubber ducked?

[ILS Repeater]

Hi fdd, long time no see. Always good to see you leaping in to support Channex but those glory days are long gone.

I am rather surprised to see that PM hasn't driven J2 into the ground just yet !

[Chille Con Carnie]

Hi ILS/Chillie,
Yep always interesting times at Channex...opps I mean Jet2..PM always canny when it comes to business and yes I only got 2% as well !...but the bonus as Malcom would say is all those Cabin Crew ok:....Personally my base is going great guns with charters and the Royal Mail is 100% OTP....so don't see what all this doom and gloom is about...unless your MOL and parking up a/c due poor yeilds and need to flog em quick before they become a fiscal drag on your balance sheet ?
P.s Chillie ..you lot finished with our Tom Fly 757 yet...need it for the Pond you know !

Well it is a 2% pay rise, but when you think that the rate of living is about 4.1% then you have say that we are 2.1% down therefore paycut?

Barke, I do not have a roof over my head. I live in a box at the end of runway 14, so there. As to the rest of your post you're AFU. I should give my 2% pay rise to more needy people when I live in a box, how dare you

[howard2107]

We are all in the wrong profession, politics is where its at.
Your average MP who is incompetent and a liar and is grossly overpaid is about to vote themselves a nice juicy 23% ish payrise.
No qualifications or experience needed.

Not bad eh.............waste of time and money this aviation lark.

[2stripes]

king halibut....what bramhope?? doesnt sound like ur on the breadline does it??

[King Halibut]

Hardly Bramhope is it, start of 14? .. that'll be more like the start of mongland Yeadon?

[2stripes]

halibut....you said end of 14 love, that means when the grey bit that you take off/land on turns to grass

[King Halibut]

Oh I did, didn't I! As punishment I shall drink a pint of Tetleys

[Sean Dillon]

2% is pathetic! Not wishing to rub it in but us at a recently merged charter airline got 7%!!!!! I could afford to live in Bramhope...

[DooblerChina]

7.2% actually
