"It was like a private jet": Couple's surprise at being the ONLY passengers on Jet2 flight from Corfu

Having a private plane all to yourself is something most of us can only dream of. Yet one lucky couple from Wythenshawe found themselves experiencing just that, when they were the only passengers flying from Corfu to Manchester.

Kevin McCuillon, 52, and Samantha, 50, were treated like VIPs on the three and a half hour flight in July 2021 - and even joked with cabin crew that they “needed more leg room”.

The couple, who flew out with Ryanair, were enjoying their week-long holiday in Corfu so much that they decided to extend their stay by a few days, so they booked new flights with Jet2. But when they arrived at the airport on the Saturday evening, they started to realise something was off as no other passengers seemed to be around.
