This is our firt time flying with a cheap airline

1 do you get tickets sent to you
2 do you get luggage lables?


sorry if i seem a bit thick re this

hi,no tickets no luggage labels. mo

so do i just turn up with my confirmation at the airport then

Slap my wrist if this is a daft question!!.... but.. do they give you the luggage labels to fill out when you get there, or would you suggest buying, and writing your own label out? Thanks

Regards, BBB

hi,yes you just go with your booking reference,we went last year and have booked again for this year,as for luggage labels i bought some from wh smiths (plain ones)and just filled them in in the normal way.dont worry,they are a good firm very well organised. mo.they just dont provide the frills.

thanks for filling me in with labels etc

Beatles fan,
Or just go into a travel agent and ask for some labels!!

I had a problem when I booked some flights back in August. I have flown with Jet2 previously Leeds/Bradford to Belfast and this time it was to Barcelona.
I was being so careful checking everything reading everything and at the end of the booking process it told me to make sure all details were correct. I then clicked back but had to fill in the details again and I then took the process right through to the end and completed the booking. I then received 2 emails and I realised that the booking had gone through on the first occasion as well.
I telephoned them immediately on a very expensive call line. They told me that they could not cancel the booking and after some debate they said I could but would have to pay a £35 admin. fee.
I wrote to them but they insisted that I must either pay the full price for the flights but they would offer the discretionary refund by paying the £35.

I had no alternative other than to pay the fee. I have not been on their web site recently but when I booked some Flybe flights it told you not to touch or click on to anything until the process was complete. Obviously clicking could activate a double booking.

I learned from my mistake and will never do the same again but I think £35 is a high fee to pay for such a simple error. I hope that Jet2 also warn their passengers in a similar way.

Hi I've just got an email from Jet 2, to say they're doing package holidays.
I've had a quick look and the site looks really easy to use. Suits me as not many fly from Leeds/Bradford now. Have they just started, or has it been going a while? Linda x

hi,i got that e mail also,ive been having a look but i wouldnt say they are particularly cheap,probably on a par with mytravel etc, but as you say the good thing is they offer loads of choice from leeds bradford airport. mo.

Hi all, I have just been on Jet2.com website and noticed you can now choose seats for any flight that you have booked, and also check-in online. Well done Jet2.

Mark,

Any idea how much the 'small charge' is to prebook the seats online ?

Chris

Hi Chris, I think the charge is £2.50 per normal seat or £10.00 for an extra-legroom seat.

Mark

thanks

I've just reserved our seats online for a flight to Amsterdam in April and booked 14A (extra legroom) and 14B outbound and also 14B & 14C inbound and didnt get charged anything!!!

Whats all that about?

Some flights do not incur a charge. How do we know which ones they are - I guess thats in the hands of Jet2.com !

Hi KEEFG & TFS1,
If you go to the opening page of the seat selection menu, just below where it asks for the last name & booking Ref. there is a click through to read terms & conditions etc. If you click this there is a list of what flights are free seat booking and also charges for other flights. Hope this helps,
Regards, Brigger

Cheers Brigger....i really ought to read things properly shouldnt i?

Jet 2 have acquired a further 3 Boeing 757's. Latest additions have come from China Southern Airlines and have been at Southend for a paint job.
