COME FLY WITH ME
Woman has hols jet all to herself
A HOLIDAYMAKER who paid just £46 for a flight to Greece got the entire plane to herself.
Karon Grieve was pictured with row after row of empty seats on the Jet2 flight from Glasgow to the island of Crete on Sunday.
The 57-year-old author was told at check-in that only three people were booked on the endof-season flight. But after the other two failed to show up, Karon was treated like an A-lister and even given a free meal.
The pilot gave her a personalised commentary on the flight, addressing her over the intercom by name and pointing out which countries they were flying over.
After landing in Crete, Karon, of Dunlop, Ayrshire, was handed her suitcase straight from the plane. She said: “They moved me to seat number one, so I had all the leg room... it was fantastic.
“The crew said I could run up and down if I wanted. I had the space to myself. It was so peaceful and I got a lot of work done.” WAYNE Rooney might be flipping out as wife Coleen refuses to wear her wedding ring, but their son, Kai, is doing somersaults on his holidays in Barbados.
Coleen, 31, is spending half term at the Sandy Lane resort with the kids, Kai, seven, Klay, four, and Kit, one, while Everton star Wayne, 31, stays at home.
The marriage took a nosedive last month after Wayne was caught drink-driving in party girl Laura Simpson’s car following a night at a bar.
