Anyone else tried Maxjet yet?
Just done a quick 3 day trip using them.
For those that dont know, its an airline that is all business class, that flys from Stanstead to JFK and Washington.
Most impressed.
£800 return vs £stupid club world/ £1350 premium economy on BA because of their ridiculous rules and fare changes if you dont include a saturday night stay (which on this ocassion i wasnt).
Compared to heathrow, Stanstead is a bit of a pain in the *** to get to/from for me personally TBH, but other than that very impressed indeed.
Not a very large company yet- but they are still young. Just wondering if anyone else had flown them? Lots of the other passengers were impressed too.

I thought BA premium economy was a bit of a joke, couldn't see much difference between premium economy and chicken coop class. I may have had five inches more leg room, but that was about the only barely noticeable difference. Think premium would be much better if they charged a small premium for it, rather than triple the fare! 
Shalln't be wasting my money on that again, and can only afford / justify business class when work are paying!!!
