JMC

I recommend JMC, and nothing is a problem. It was my birthday on this holiday and champagne was delivered to the room, which was a nice surprise!!! Staff were lovely, the flight was great, and it was an easy transition between the airport and hotel.

Somehow I was ignored by the JMC Airline crew, I felt so miserable (maybe I was the only non-European on the aeroplane)? I would not like to travel by JMC ever again, although it's quite cheap and convenient to travel to some Greek islands.

JMC must rate as one of the most awful airlines we have ever had the misfortune of travelling with. Shambolic check in, poor leg room even for me at 5'3" so you can imagine the discomfort my 6'2" husband had to endure, meals you wouldn't feed your dog and to top it all a 9 hour delay on return. This was made worse by the fact we had to go to Gatwick first for a crew change who were out of hours, and wait on the tarmac for an hour, before continuing our journey to Glasgow. Instead of arriving in Glasgow at 9.50pm the previous night, we arrived at 7.30 the next morning. We will NEVER choose to travel with this airline again. I would rather forego my holiday than put up with the stress of travelling in these conditions.

We flew to Grenada in the Caribbean on a JMC flight. There was a problem at the airport with the computer system, which meant the check in process became a total shambles. The fault we discovered did not originate with JMC and affected other airlines also. Standing in a queue for hours with no explanation leads you to look around a bit more. It was obvious that the other airlines with similar problems had a strategy for dealing with this problem. They kept their passengers fully informed of the situation and all there queues went a lot faster than ours when the system was operable again. We did not hear from a JMC representative all the time we stood and when challenged the one poor girl at the desk simply shrugged her shoulders.

We found our seats and the first thing that we noticed was that rubbish such as food wrappings where on the floor and tucked into the seat pocket and crumbs etc where all over the place.

The seats are the smallest we have experienced for a relatively long haul flight and certainly the most uncomfortable. I am an average size and legroom was very limited and felt extremely cramped when the passenger in the front reclined her seat.

The plane was pretty shabby although it probably met the very minimum guidelines. The meals where not good and the service was by people who where probably as fed up with things as we were.

It was obvious they had a plane full of very dissatisfied customers as many people we met on holiday and at the airport all had the same complaints.

We have flown with many airlines over the years and can honestly say that JMC is by far the worst and even with relatively low prices do not offer good value for money.

We will not be seeking to fly with JMC again and I suspect most of the other passengers will not either and with the flight market as it is you can find a reasonably priced alternative with a small amount of effort.

There really was no leg room at all on this JMC plane. I am only 5ft5ins and I struggled. The flight going out was 5hrs and nearly 6 coming back (Gatwick to Sharm El Sheikh Dec 2002). Everyone had their seats reclined to try and create more leg room, which of course meant that when it was time to eat the trays wouldn't come down properly. On the return flight I spent alot of time stood outside the out of order toilets, trying to stretch my legs. My 5 year old daughter was the only one of us who managed to get some sleep and stayed comfortable. Only to be recommended for small children!

My family and I recently travelled on a package holiday with JMC Holidays from Manchester to Antalya (Turkey)14/4/2002 - 22/4/2002.

The flight was at night and the check in queue went down quite quickly. The check in staff were very friendly and we were given a warm welcome to JMC when we stepped onto the plane, not forgetting the extremely friendly members of staff who waved us goodbye at the exit door.

The flight was quite uncomfortable but I myself, am a nervous flyer so maybe that explains it.

The food was very nice, especially the dessert. We were offered duty-free items at reasonable prices and headphones were available for the in-flight film and for listening to music on the radio...very calming at night while flying, I must say!

Overall the flight was very smooth and I would have liked to have thanked the pilot but didn't have chance unfortunately!

I would definitely recommend flying and booking your holiday with JMC Holidays. We have enjoyed travelling with them and are looking forward to travelling with them again next year on yet another trip to beautiful Turkey.
