Jet2.com crowned best short-haul airline
October 21, 2008Jet2.com has been named the best short-haul airline by readers of The Guardian and The Observer, scooping the accolade for the third successive year.
The Leeds-based low-cost airline also received the award for the second-best European short-haul airline in the Guardian and Observer Travel Awards 2008.
It fought off stiff competition from all no-frills and full-fare airlines that operate routes across Europe, including industry-leader Ryanair which came 15th.
The awards are now in their 22nd year and are widely regarded as one of the most respected ceremonies in the industry.
"Coming out top among the UK's short-haul airlines demonstrates yet again that low-cost does not have to mean cutting corners on the things that mean the most to air travellers," affirmed Jet2.com HR director Claire Flynn.
She added: "The fact that we have performed so well at the awards for the past three years is testament to the hard work and dedication of each and every member of our staff."
