On long haul flights you are still able to choose between Business Class and economy cabins plus we suggest you check the fares in both classes as when the economy cabin gets nearly full the prices gets close to the business class fare. On European services - UK originating passengers can conveniently depart from Birmingham, Bristol, Manchester and Newcastle. As well as London Gatwick you can choose either low cost ticket with on-board snacks for purchase or a full service ticket including catering and newspapers.
