Hi everyone,

We are flying to Italy in 3 weeks with Jet2.com - I've just found out that I'm 7 weeks pregnant (I will try to contain my excitement in this post :-D) and my midwife said I need to inform the airline. I've been on their website and it makes no mention of having to tell them if you are pregnant - just says there are no restrictions up to 27 weeks and not allowed after 34 weeks.

I've found the number to call but it's 50p a minute and from what I've heard about Jet2 customer service it's not going to be a quick call - is my midwife right saying I need to call them to let them know?

Congratulations Popsy !!

As there are no restrictions with Jet2 up to 27 weeks, I see no need to advise them, and none specified on their website. However, there may be a requirement for you to advise your travel insurer at the earliest opportunity, just so that you are fully covered.

You may find some useful advice and info in our Flying When Pregnant topic.

Jet2 to fly to New York from Leeds/Bradford - 4 flights in November & December!

Could be worth a shopping trip

However, what planes do Jet2 have in their fleet capable of a trans atlantic flight??? I thought they only had 757's in short haul config & 737's which cant do it anyway?

KeefG,

Jet2 will be using a 220 seat Boeing 757-200. They might offer cheap flights, but that's a lot of seats and hence not much legroom (29-30" seat pitch) for a trans-atlantic hop. More information at Yorkshire Evening Post.

Re: JET2.COM ... Q&As ... please post here

KeefG,

I beleive Jet2 have recently aquired a 'new' 757-200, registered G-LSAJ to operate the LBA-EWK service. It was registered on 6th May 2008 and is ex G-CDUP of Thomsonfly / Britannia amungst others, a 1990 airframe. I assume it's an 'ET' (ETOPS) certified aircraft. This has approx. 18 less seats than the aircraft used on european routes althought I'm a little dubious at to weather that information is correct. 238 seats on their 'european' 752's? Seams a little high to me.

Re: JET2.COM ... Q&As ... please post here

As I was in Newcastle airport this afternoon say farewell to my parents off on their jollies I called to the Jet2 desk and asked about the online check-in thing - I wanted to know if you could do your return online check-in at home BEFORE the outbound journey.

The answer is NO - you must complete your outbound journey BEFORE you can check-in online for the return journey so unless you have internet access with use of printer either in your accomodation or resort you can't do it for the return journey.

With that in mind, we've just decided pre-book our seats as planned anyway and just turn up and wait in check-in queue and arrive early as usual for return journey.

Online Check In

Can anyone advise where we drop our cases off at Manchester Airport, if i opt for the online check in, on the Jet2 website. Also, Do they put the luggage labels on at that point.

Many Thanks. Snapper

Jet2.com boarding cards

Hi all, just wondering if anyone has had the same problem. I was unable to print off the boarding card after online check-in, for one of our party (3 people), travelling to Palma in June, and was informed by call centre staff it it just a matter of checking in manually, and a boarding pass will be reissued. I am really concerned about this, and am hoping the above advice is accurate. Can anyone shed any light? Many thanks.

Re: Jet2.com boarding cards

colettemc,

You've probably already done this, but have you tried logging back in to your booking and re-printing the boarding card? If that doesn't work, just go to the desks and they'll sort you out.

Hi everyone,

Sorry if this is a really dumb question (most of mine are). I'm flying off to Pisa next week with Jet2 from Newcastle - will they provide me with luggage labels or do I have to make my own? someone at work said they don't provide any but I thought I would check with the experts :wink:

Popsy20,

Luggage labels aren't required these days. They'll put the usual bar coded luggage tags on to make sure your luggage gets on the aircraft, but you'll have to provide your own labels if you want to put your name / destination address on etc. Try the HT ones.

Wickedchris,

They are out now, had trouble getting flight details as the normal seach doesn't produce it. Went on their advertisement for canaries winter schedule. Have waited so long to book and now when they are released was astonished at the price. Sticking with Monarch for now.

Sorry just thought our flight is to Lanzarote. Tenerife might be cheaper.

Re: JET2.COM ... Q&As ... please post here

Hi

2 questions....

1. - Which planes do Jet 2 use to fly out to Tenerife from Leeds Bradford?

2. - I booked our seats before the March date change of the luggage allowance from 20kg to 17kg, but in April I selected our seats, and on the terms & conditions listed 17kg. I still have the original booking that states 20kg....

Can you answer this, or is a call to Jet 2 required do you think?

BIG thanks in advance!!!!!! :cheers

Re: JET2.COM ... Q&As ... please post here

Hi Debhiwahh, I booked with jet2 from belfast to palma way back in september last year for june this year, and my booking states 18kg, and it is now 17kg. but I think they can change it whenever they want. The call centre people are very helpful, but be aware it costs to call them. colettemc.
