I have used Jet2 on a number of occasions now. I have flown from Manchester to Murcia, Alicante and Prague with them.

I have always found the prices to be amongst the best around, especially if you are flexible with your dates. I have always booked my car hire through Jet2 and to date I have never managed to get it cheaper elseware.

Jet2 have their own check-in area at Manchester so I have never had to wait longer than 15 minutes to check- in even at peak times. They also seem to be able to get there planes off the ground on time aswell, I have never suffered any major delays with them, amybe 10 or 20 minutes at the most.

The online booking facility is excellent, You recieve your confirmation email straight away, this can be easily printed and acts as your travel documents.

There are a couple of minor bad points. I found the cost of food and drink onboard the planes to be very expensive, with the only value to be found on " meal deals ". The planes were very well stocked though.

Also I found the planes a little cramped, I am not the tallest so if I suffered taller people really would.

As no frills airlines go I think that Jet2 is amongst the best, you do only get what you pay for but pros outweigh the cons considerably and with friendly staff and a clean, modern fleet you should be able to have an enjoyable flight at a reasonable price.
