Air 2000/First Choice Flights
Review of Air 2000 by mrsmopples

Advantages: Cheap but not cheerful
Disadvantages: Offer you no support if things go wrong

...Since we travelled with Air 2000, they have since become First Choice Flights. As Air 2000 they were quite surprisingly an award winning UK airline. Every year, the airline's 29 aircraft make on average 30,000 flights from fifteen airports in the UK and Ireland. Air 2000 started on 11 April 1987 and is the UK's 3rd largest charter airline. The airline flies from Manchester, London Gatwick, Birmingham, Newcastle, Bristol, Glasgow, East Midlands, ...
...and South Africa. Air 2000/ First Choice are part of First Choice Holidays. This includes Sovereign, Hayes & Jarvis. Portland and Unijet . Therefore if you book with any of these agents, more than likely you will be flying with this airline. The airline flies to Dubai, Greece, Cyprus to name but a few. The planes include the Airbus 320 and the Boeing 757. **** OUR HOLIDAY BEGINS ***** In 2003, my family and I booked a two-week holiday to Cyprus ... Read review

Diamond review   Not my First Choice - UPDATED
Review of Air 2000 by moose

Advantages: Cheap, good in-flight movies, on time departure
Disadvantages: No veggie meals, paying for a stupid adapter!

...I enjoyed the least! Air 2000 are part of First Choice Holidays plc (which also includes Sovereign, Hayes & Jarvis and Unijet amongst others). So, if you book a First Choice holiday chances are that you may fly with Air 2000. Their web site, which is thoroughly informative I may add, proudly states that Air 2000 have won the award of 'Best UK Charter Airline 2001' by Travel Weekly Globe. Hmmm...I would like to disagree. Firstly I cannot fault the ...
...actually choose to go with Air 2000 - as a charter flight it was the allocated carrier. Anyway on to my grumbles!! Firstly, I was very annoyed at the fact that I had to buy an 'adapter' to be able to use MY OWN headphones in order to watch the in-flight movie. I could understand them charging for headphones (at £3 a pair) if you didn't have you own, but what I do object to is being charged £1 (its the principle!) to use my own pair! Instead of having ...

The airline that just doesn't care
Review of Air 2000 by chachaqueen

Advantages: Cheap
Disadvantages: Poor legroom, service and veggie food

...The overall behaviour of the air staff gave the impression that they didn't want to be there and were not very pleasant or helpful. There were 3 televisions for our entertainment, hanging from the roof of the plane, one of which had a picture with a beautiful green colouring to it. To use these fine facilities you then had to buy headphones so that you could see this quality entertainment! I tried to sleep most of the journey, but it is near impossible ...
...driving back up to Leeds when we got back! I eagerly waited for breakfast, as I was a bit peckish by this point. And we got: One small bowl with a few cornflakes, a bit of milk and a muffin, of which no-one in my party could manage to eat. My mind boggles when I try to identify the type of muffin, and I can honestly say that I still have no idea! My final impression of AIR2000 was that the staff did not like their jobs much or people! It seems that ... Read review

Move Over Budget Airlines...
Review of Air 2000 by Redhead

Advantages: There wasn't any!
Disadvantages: Everything! Bad food, seats, staff.. the lot!

...saying how much they disliked air food. I have had nothing bad to say about the food previously - even on budget airlines! This one though was awful. The main meals were hardly enough to keep you going, I suppose this was so you would spend a fortune on the over priced Pringles and popcorn! - The food was especially bad when you know you have paid £15 per person for that slop! The staff, how were they? It depends on what you want from Airline staff, ...
...airline again, I think Easy Jet and Ryan Air should watch out, they may lose some customers to this new up and coming budget airline! Thanks for the read.... nice to be back! p.s - the old boy asked me to marry him whilst on holiday!! WOOHOO! ... Read review

Hopefully not again
Review of Air 2000 by tracy2002

Advantages: been with Air2000 before
Disadvantages: still hate flying

At last the holiday we had all been waiting for. The days had been counted and the day was finally here. When we arrived at the airport we were met by a lady who worked for Air2000 and pointed us in the right direction of the correct check in desks. When you are going on holiday you would expect to be met by a nice smiling, happy person when checking in. Unfortuantley this was not the case with us. Our lady on check in was more interested in chatting ...
...up on the gossip. Obviously saftey wasn't much of an priority with her as she only just managed to ask us if we packed our own bags. She was too busy chatting while we were standing there waiting. I hate flying and am totally paranoid and that really annoyed me. We went to our appropriate gate before boarding and waited paitentley. Ten minutes before take off they started calling seat rows for boarding of our flight. When we gave in our passports ... Read review
