Jet2 named 'best short haul airline'
30.10.07
Leeds Bradford Airport based budget airline Jet2 has been named Best Short Haul Airline by readers of The Guardian and The Observer, and users of the Guardian Unlimited website, for the second year running. The airline fought off competition from a number of other airlines operating European routes, with Dutch airline KLM second and bmi third.
Ian Doubtfire, managing director at Jet2, said: 'This really is a fantastic achievement for our airline, all the more special because it is voted for by the British public on key factors such as customer service and in-flight experience.'
'It demonstrates that low cost does not have to mean cutting corners on the things that mean the most to travellers, such as customer service and punctuality, not just for a short period, but consistently and that's why we're still on top for the second year running.'
Last year Jet2 came away with the same award although it has only been in operation for four years when it launched its first flights from its base at Leeds Bradford Airport. The award was presented to Jet2 Mr. Doubtfire by Mariella Frostup in Seville on Sunday. The travel awards were celebrating their 21st year and are voted for by readers via a questionnaire.
