(13 Feb 2016, 11:21 am)NK53 TKT I had G-GDFG, a 733. G-GDFK, that flew me out was supposed to take me home; however, the flight left Newcastle at 8:15am, and was diverted to Lyon, because the plane was then due to fly to Edinburgh and then back to Newcastle via Chambery, it flew light to Chambery and flew out to Edinburgh 6 hours late. To stop further inconvenience, Jet2 flew G-GDFG an Edinburgh based 733 to pick me and fly the people out from Edinburgh. I arrived back at 20:47 instead of the planned 18:45. G-GDFG took G-GDFK's place a Newcastle giving Edinburgh G-GDFK in exchange.

That sounds like a bit of a nightmare. It's been a good few years since I've flown LS. The last time I flew LS was to Prague. I had one of their 733s. They're not badly kept internally, considering their age, but nowadays, I'd much rather have a BA/EZY Airbus for short haul. 

If you go long haul - aim for a BA 77W; gorgeous aeroplanes. That said, they don't feel quite as sturdy as their wonderful, but a bit tired, 744s for a transatlantic hop. That, and their moving map seems to break the IFE! At least it did on G-STBL.

Aircraft flown on:

744, 77W, 772, E145, E190, E170, E175, E195, A319, A320, A320NEO, A321, A321NEO, A330-200, A330-300, A340-600 763, 752, 733, 737, 738, CRJ900, CRJ1000
Favourite aircraft: G-STBL/G-ZBKL
