Rubi was really friendly at check-in. So were all your staff actually. I was angry at all the extra charges though. Had to pay more to book seats, take on hand luggage and book in hold luggage..n extra £300 for the family. It will make me think twice about booking Jet2 again...but fab service u thought.

Why Book a Flight to Florence?
Tuscany is famed for its wine, food and fine art. At the heart of this trinity of culture lies the historic city of Florence.
Situated on the banks of the River Arno, Florence is widely recognised as the birthplace of the Italian Renaissance. In addition to fine art and striking architecture, you’ll find a blend of fashion, romance and the finest cuisine on offer in Italy.
When is the Best Time to Book Cheap Flights to Florence?
Florence is a small city, characterised by its narrow, cobbled streets and sprawling piazzas. While this makes for atmospheric surrounds, it also means the city can be rather congested with international tourists during the summer months. The heat can also be rather stifling at this time of year.
For cheap flights – and a bit of elbow room – the best time to visit Florence from the UK is late winter and early spring, when the weather is not too cold, yet the footfall is lower.
