Air 2000 > Reviews

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, ... Read review

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 ... Read review

Advantages: No problems with safety
Disadvantages: Delays, comfort

...on the tarmac. Apparently, the air traffic was very busy and so we ended up waiting for a slot for 30 minutes. We were heading to Palma airport in Majorca for a First Choice holiday at the Luz Marina Hotel in C’an Pastilla for seven nights. Please also see my opinions on First Choice and on Majorca. We had previously travelled to Majorca two years earlier and once again had chosen accommodation available through First Choice only. We then ... Read review

Advantages: Nice staff, clean aeroplanes, good entertainment and food, on time flights (in my experience any way)
Disadvantages: Just another money grabbing charter airline (I've probably been very lucky with them so far)

What can I say about Air 2000? Firstly I was quite surprised to read other members opinions of them, which came out as very poor. Having flown with most UK charter airlines at some time or another - through numerous name changes! I have learned one simple thing. No one of them is any better than the others! They are all money driven. Their aircraft are fitted with the maximum possible number of seats, the food is of a low standard, the staff are ... Read review

Advantages: cheap
Disadvantages: poor food, pay for bar drinks

...found a bargain flight with Air 2000. I took the route Gatwick to Alicante and the flight time is around 2 hours and 30 minutes. The flight left and arrived on time. Due to passing out and sleeping most of the way there I had a breakfast that was of typical poor airline food, it was hot but so is sludge if you cook it. On the way back we checked in and found my friend and I had been put in seats far away from each other so we had to sit by ourselves ... Read review

Advantages: Gets you there!
Disadvantages: Crammed Airplane

...recently made 4 journeys with Air 2000, so feel that I am in a good position to commenta bout them. The airline is widely used by travel operators like First Choice, so if you have a summer holiday to spain booked you may well be travelling with Air 2000. As you would expect Air 2000 is far from luxury. Their airplanes are designed to cram as many people as possible into them, so comfort isn't very good. The staff are helpful and polite however, ...

Advantages: Service,Comfortable Seats, Quality of flight
Disadvantages: Annoying Duty-Free announcements

I found First Choice Airways to be one of the best airlines I have ever had the chance to fly with. In August 2004, me and my family had a wonderful flight with First Choice Airways (formally Air2000). We flew to Majorca-Palma Airport from East Midlands Airport. We flew on an Airbus A321 (G-OOAH), which had Premium seats available, and so we booked them as a special treat for a change, and Premium seating offers seating in a designated part of ...

Advantages: They fly you from a to b
Disadvantages: Poor poor service

...The airline they use is air 2000. I live in Central Scotland and we had to make our way to Manchester airport. Once there, all excited about going to Jamaica and getting married, we were told they had not allocated our seats as we had requested and paid extra for. This resulted in me not being able to sit next to my future husband for the whole 9.5 hour flight. Ok got passed that, just, he managed to get seated on the row behind me. We had upgraded ...

Advantages: Quite cheapish airline
Disadvantages: I would say quite a poor reputation

...to voice my opinion on Air 2000 after reading quite a few bad reviews from other members. Our flight out started with a 3 and half our delay which was due to a technical fault on the plane, this was slightly worrying at first but I would rather wait till the problem is sorted rather than leave on a faulty plane, and in the end they transfered us to a different departure gate and we got on with the journey on a different plane. The staff at air 2000 ... Read review

Advantages: cheapish
Disadvantages: name them all, not big enough space here!!!!

For the first time in 8 years i finally went abroad to Turkey. I was very excited as we had got quite a good deal through Lastminute.com. However........ This is going to be the last time i EVER fly with Air2000 (which is a subsidery of Firstchoice) I was stuck on an isle(typo) at the front of the airplane, not bad, but nowhere to put handluggage, therefore the stewardesses(i'll go into that later!) took my bag to the middle of the plane and hid ...

Advantages:
Disadvantages: An unenjoyable experience. Not a good way to begin and end a holiday.

I flew to Cyprus on Air2000. It was part of a package deal, and the whole trip didn't cost too much. But the reason for the good price has to be the BAD airline! First of all, the flight was delayed and no satisfactory reason was given to the passengers. The plane itself didn't appear to be particularly well taken care of. We were expected to pay extra if we wanted earphones in order to watch the inflight movie. I paid the extra, but wish I hadn't ... Read review

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

The person who said this is "as good as any other" mustn't have travelled much. I've flown with this airline a couple of times and never would again. Both times the flight was delayed by a good number of hours with infrequent announcements leaving you waiting around bored. There was less leg room than normal flights meaing that on a long flight you were left feeling very uncomfortable and cramped in. The food was nothing special but no worse than ... Read review
