I was on a jet2 flight 8/9/24 from Bristol to Paphos. Just as we started our decent into Paphos a burning odour filled the cabin. It was very alarming and we were given no explanation. I later found out the return flight that day was cancelled. I have approached jet2 for an explanation but no reply.
