SAFETY ONBOARD RESPONSIBLE FLYING WITH JET2.COM
Safety & Comfort
Most of the following guidelines are
mandatory under Civil Aviation Authority
Regulations to make sure your flight is safe,
comfortable and enjoyable
SAFETY ONBOARD
Knowing what to do in the unlikely event of an emergency could
make all the difference to you and your family. The safety
information card in your seat pocket and the cabin crew’s safety
briefing gives you vital information on the location of exits and
emergency equipment. As this can vary from one airline to
another it is important to pay attention to the safety briefing and
read the safety card each time you fly. Our crew are specially
trained to ensure your safety and security at all times. It is an
offence to refuse to obey any lawful command of the captain or
cabin crew. Our primary concern is YOUR safety at all times.
MOBILE PHONES
To prevent interference to the aircraft communication and
control systems the use of mobile phones or any other wireless
communication devices is restricted onboard. Mobiles must not
be used for internet access, text messaging or voice calls while
onboard the aircraft. If your device is fitted with a “flight mode”
or something similar you should switch it to this before the
aircraft doors are closed to prevent any accidental transmission
or reception.
SEATBELTS
Seatbelts protect you from injury and you are recommended to
keep your belt fastened throughout the flight, and must do so
whenever the seatbelt sign is switched on (during taxi, take-off,
landing and turbulence). Adjust the seatbelt so that it is tight
but comfortable with the buckle the right way around so that it
can be easily released. Infants travelling on a passenger’s lap
will require an infant seatbelt, which our cabin crew will happily
fit for you.
SMOKING
Smoking is NOT PERMITTED on any of our flights, and for the
safety of all our passengers the toilet compartments are fitted
with highly sensitive smoke detectors. Violation of this law may
lead to prosecution and a substantial fine.
ALCOHOL
Please bear in mind the fact that high altitude increases the
physical effects of alcohol, so moderate consumption is
recommended. It is illegal to be intoxicated onboard an aircraft.
86JetAway
The consumption of any alcoholic beverage onboard other than
those that have been supplied from the in-flight bar is not
permitted and the crew are authorised to remove alcohol from
passengers drinking from their own supplies.
PASSENGER BEHAVIOUR
Jet2.com expects our passengers to behave in a responsible
manner and we will not tolerate unacceptable behaviour. This
includes foul language and any other behaviour that reduces
other passengers’ enjoyment of the flight and causes them,
or our staff, any degree of distress, discomfort or unnecessary
inconvenience. We reserve the right to ban passengers from
future flights if their behaviour is a threat to the safety of our
passengers or crew.
HAND LUGGAGE
One small piece of hand luggage is allowed per person, providing
its weight is less than 10kg and it is no larger than 56cm x
45cm x 25cm including wheels and handles. Any piece of
baggage that does not meet these requirements will be placed in
the hold and the relevant fee will be charged. Any other excess
hand luggage will be placed in the hold. Light or soft articles
should be stowed in the overhead luggage compartments,
heavier items under seats. Items lying loose on empty seats or
obstructing the aisles or emergency exits are dangerous and you
will be asked to remove them.
ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT
Once the aircraft is at cruising altitude and the captain has
turned off the “Fasten Seat Belt” sign, you are free to use
laptops, CD players, MP3 players, computer games and most
other electronic items. The use of electronic equipment of any
kind is not permitted during taxi, take-off and landing.
COMFORT
Changes in the cabin air pressure may cause some slight
discomfort in your ears. You can relieve this by swallowing hard,
yawning or holding your nose while gently breathing out with
your mouth closed. Flying also causes your body to dehydrate so
you are advised to have something to drink that is not alcoholic.
For your further comfort, please try to stretch your legs and arms
as much as possible throughout the flight.
IN-FLIGHT SERVICE
On your flight we will be offering you a comprehensive choice of
hot and cold drinks as well as a selection of delicious snacks,
including sandwiches and confectionery. Full details of our
onboard products can be found at the back of this magazine.
We kindly ask all passengers to help keep the aircraft tidy by
not placing rubbish in the seat pockets or on the floor. Our cabin
crew will be collecting rubbish throughout the flight, so please
help them to keep the aircraft tidy.
