Monarch are reasonable. Sleazy are hit and miss. My best bucket and spade flights non BA are usually with TOM. Friendly and experienced crews in my experiences.
TOM seems to offer extra leg room at £85 pp per sector, which comes to a substantial £340 for 2 of us for the return trip, and a significant amount more than Sleazyjet charges. That seems a lot, but I would be happy to pay it if it offered me a reasonable degree of comfort. Are the extra legroom seats actually significantly better, and is one reasonably assured of getting the seats one has booked (I am sure I saw somewhere that this is very hit and miss).

Can anyone comment on how TOM extra leg room compares with Sleazyjet extra leg room ?
