Jet2’s PR department has yet to respond to a customer’s claim that he and his family were relegated to seats near ‘a stinky toilet’ to make way for Coleen Rooney - wife of the footballer, Wayne Rooney – and members of her family.
Mrs Rooney later said she was completely unaware of the preferential treatment afforded to her family party but Mark Cassin was not best pleased when his group was moved to the cheap seats near a toilet area with odour issues.
Having paid a hefty £2,735 for a return flight from Manchester to Faro for himself, Lynn, his son Joshua, dad Tom, Lynn's sister Kathryn Pullar and her partner Richard Townend, plus paying an additional £60 to reserve seats so they could sit together, Mark Cassin’s group was moved to make way for someone more famous.
Cassin has taken to Facebook to complain of the incident on the Jet 2 flights from Faro to Manchester on 28 July. He says that a flight attendant informed him that Coleen Rooney needed to sit in his reserved seats so she could be with her three children, all aged eight and below.
