Marcelino 2000

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

...Now the holiday season is fast approaching, no doubt many of you will be perusing the websites and holiday books for ideas on where to spend that elusive two-week break. To be honest, when booking a package holiday I never really took into consideration which airline would be responsible for taking me to my Mediterranean destination. All I looked for was the nearest airport and then the price. ***** WHO ARE THEY AND WHAT THEY DO ******** 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... Read review

Advantages: Quality, range of departure points
Disadvantages: Expensive

...Out of all the charter airlines I have flown with, I can defiantly say that Air 2000 is the best – especially in quality of service. Primarily flying to European holiday hotspots, Air 2000 operate from a range of UK airports, and as well as the aircraft, they also operate exclusive airport services – such as dedicated check-in. On board the aircraft the facilities are second to none, with seat back TVs, and an excellent in-flight magazine. But what really brings Air 2000 out on top is their food. It is almost of a restaurant quality, and I just hope they launch a range of ready meals in supermarkets!

Advantages: Very efficent, always on time, friendly crew
Disadvantages: None

...I always fly with Air 2000 and First Choice and always book at Travel Choice. I am extremely surprised by all the bad feed back for Aie 2000 I always find them clean on time friendly and better than any other charter airline especially Airtours and Britannia! The meals and entertainment are always good better than British Airways sometimes and thats saying something. I've yet to be on a delayed Air 2000 flight and I've flown with them 20 times over the last 4 years, which is excellent when you think that Britannia and Airtours are delayed almost every flight. So there you have it the only chater airline that in my eyes looks after it passengers. Oh I almost forgot Air 2000 still give you your full luggage allowence unlike some airlines I've already mentioned!!... Read review
