Advantages: You tell me. Disadvantages: Bad seat comfort, some ancient aircraft, fraudulent practices
...on recent product changes at Jersey European / British European Airways, and to review how Ciao have reacted on my criticism of JEA's misrepresentation on Ciao's Airline League Table.
ORIGINAL OPINION dd. 23.02.2001
________________________________________________________
In pursuit of consumer protection, I have to put a few things straight about Jersey European Airways, or British European, as they call themselves now. I was surprised to see ... ...of seven opinions posted about Jersey European, only two are built on more or less solid experience, i.e. more than just one flight. The other five all reflect a singular impression of one journey, written by authors who obviously don't fly very often. Now, if I was to write an opinion about every airline that I have flown just once, you would have to read another fifty airline opinions by me, and Ciao would be filled up with lots of waste.
This ...

Advantages: Cheaper than other airlines! Disadvantages: Had old women serving me food instead of the gorgeous stewardesses you see on TV!
I boarded this service from Birmingham International Airport to Paris Charles de Gaulle!. The service that I recieved weas excellent. This flight was my changeover for Paris to Hong Kong. The service was excellent and cost £200 cheaper than any other direct flight from England. The best thing about my flight goign to Paris was that there had to have been around 100 seats on the plane yet only 10 of them was taken. The return however was a morning ... ...France so the flight was slightly delayed. The breakfast was nice and I was also offered a second breakfast if I was hungry. Every seat was taken and the spaces where getting pretty cramped up!. The landing has to have been one of the worst I have ever experienced as it was very bumpy and had to land virtually twice. The service was excellent and I would definitly use these again for flights to Paris!. The only major disadvantage I found was that ...

I went with my boss to Edinburgh to a conference there. Both of us hadn't flown before so all was an exciting experience. I can't believe I am just over 30 and I hadn't flown in as a passenger in a plane before!
Anyway - the air craft was small, a two-engined jobby. Compact and cosy like a luxury coach with wings! All the usual safety procedures, etc. The crew must go through this day in and day out - but they all seemed so friendly and happy and ... ...this was a short flight (an hour) the crew made sure all passengers were catered for and drinks/food were circulated on both journeys.
I enjoyed the experience very much and found JEA very professional. I would fly with them again and other airlines take note - be like JEA and you can't go far wrong :) ...

Advantages: Clean Comfortable Disadvantages: Business class not worth the extra
I am a frequent flyer with British European and have to say that their service is improving all the time. I have flown from my native Belfast to Bristol, London Gatwick, London Stansted, London City and the Isle Of Man with them. The aircraft they fly especially the BAE146 jets are superb, really quiet smooth and with four engines a feeling of safety only usually found on intercontinental flights.In Economy class you get a drink and a biscuit or ... ...you get a sandwhich and a drink. In business class you get a full meal and wine, however I have found that the Business class fares are really not justified especially to Stansted as there are no Business lounge facilities and have been happier flying economy. The staff are very helpful and friendly.I have never had a major problem except when a flight was cancelled due to a technical fault and I was offered flights to Gatwick as opposed to Stansted ...

Advantages: reliable and friendly Disadvantages: perhaps they should fly more frequently
...islander and hence rely upon jersey european to get to and from the mainland. from the age of 8, i travelled weekly to school and in doing so used jersey european. one of the first things that struck me about the airline was their friendliness and willingness to help a petrified young boy who had never flown before. furthermore, the ease with which they dealt with any problems was phenomenol and their care goes beyond their line of duty. once i was ...

Advantages: small enough to care Disadvantages: a bit pricey but advantages outweigh the disadvantages
We flew Jersey Eurpean from Leeds/Bradford..a couple of years ago and I have to say that it was one of the best regional flights we've ever been on..
We had to laugh as it was a 0900 departure and we got to the airport early ( about 0730) I asked what sort of refreshments would be served on the flight down to Jersey and was promptley told just coffee and biscuits, so we went upstairs and had breakfast in the aiport cafe..
Just a few mins after ... ...with coffee followed by fresh salmon, side salad and bread..I couldn't believe my eyes, I said to her I thouhgt his was supposed to be coffee and biscuits, she said this is it.. its what we call a snack...I'd love to see their main meals
the flight down was excellent and although I didn't ask I feel sure I would have been able to visit the flight deck if I had mentioned it..
Jesrsey Eurpoean were very good, an excellent small airline serving the ...

I have travelled on Jersey European Airways on a journey from Birmingham International Airport to Jersey. I few on two of their planes one was a Fokker turbo prop and the other was a BAE Systems whisper Jet. The flights on both planes were good and the onboard service was excellent. We did not experience any delays, as the flight was a scheduled flight. The flight was also classed as an international flight as jersey is not part of the EU so you ...
