Agree, seems through this trial period, nothing marrying up! I 'registered' in ALC upon arrival in November. Nothing required upon departure! Last month in FUE, nothing required upon arrival. Then upon departure, I was asked had i registered within Any European Airport during last 3 months? Yes...

Long walk way with lack of seating, unless you use lounges(cost?), no consideration for elderly etc. Currently at least 'some' welcomed seats to T2. Summer 2026 completion? I'll hold my breath😔

Travelled Jet2 to Fue yesterday. 1) Arrived 05.45 for 08.00 dept, only other Jet2 departures around same time, 07.30 TFS and 09.00 ACE. Now i always fly with Jet2, but notice their prices 'creeping up'. On check in, fairly quiet with only 3 flts around 1 1/2 block, noted 23 Jet2 staff on duty...

'Grates me', some of the Social Media comments! "Blaming Ryanair", "Aircraft plummeted 10,000ft", "That's why it's safer to fly to Lanzarote", amongst but a few. Sorry, what planet are some of these people on🤔😒 Best "Safer to fly to Lanzarote", really know their geography. May not know...

I'll try it next month, and let you know😆

Back from ALC again today on Jet2 Numb bummer A321😒. Slight delay due to aircraft change in ALC, and ATC, due wx over France. Landed 14.02, stand 13, bussed to T1, but still out by 14.25. On outbound almost 3 weeks ago, through Security in mins. Yes quieter time of year, but BHX of late, through...

I'd be surprised about Luxor, I've relatives there, very limited Tourist destination, apart from Nile Cruises.

Totally agree, ALC, which I use on a regular morning basis, has always been more or less full, throughout the year. Cannot see ALC being dropped from morning departures from BHX, bear in mind so many other Jet2 arrivals into ALC from around UK at around same time!

Apologies if wrong forum, perhaps Random Stuff? Anyway, some may be aware of, or be interested. Here in Valencian region, inc ALC, have read alot of media coverage of late, last 2 weeks, of the need for a 'Carta de Invitacion'. (This can be read if googled!) Basically to keep it short, if you...

Karpathos, little known island between Crete and Rhodes. From what I understand, very quiet place to visit. Yes it may be an opportunity, but until another European operator commences holidays there on a regular basis, I can't see Jet2 or even Tui starting there soon.

Remember years ago when I used to attend meetings at BHX, HS2 albeit in early stages, there was some debate as to whether the 'mover' would end just short of T2, or be integrated. Matters will have moved on since. However if anything like yesterday, rather than wait in the chaos outside the...

Landed 13.06 today, ex ALC Jet 2 Stand 14, hand luggage only, out front terminal awaiting taxi 13.24. Well done Jet2, Border Force T2. 👍 An aside again😏 ALC Border Control farcical today, very unusual, seemed E Gates malfunction? Asked about forthcoming EES Procedures(12th Oct). Apparently lady...

Thanks for clarification. Must say, having flown twice on the A330, will miss the 'comfier' seats than those awful A321 one's, and also not having to listen to Jess Glynne🙄 At end of the day, my choice of airine, so shouldn't really complain 😏😏

Just needed to change my 6th Sept flt from ALC to a week later. Originally on the A330, now a A321. Thought the A330 was with Jet2 until October? Haven't checked out other schedules, but has lease finished early??

Second para re: Jet2, totally agree, becoming very congested at peak times, noted from my own experience the other day. You make some sensible recommendations, and with any further Jet2 expansion, they will have to do something. In respect of T1 departure lounge, some of the seating needs urgent...
