Channex at AGP

[TG345]

I have been using Jet2 for regular MAN-AGP-MAN trips over the course of this winter, and have noticed that the aircraft used seems to park at AGP between its' 1320 arrival and the return to MAN at 1730.

Just out of curiousity I wonder if there is any particular reason for this, as it seems contrary to the usual operating practice of loco airlines. Is it perhaps the case that the asset is under-utilised during the winter season, and it is less costly to park it at AGP than at MAN?

i think it's just due to slot times, at leeds on our sunday cmf service , we get a 5 hour stay in chambery due to getting a slot, surprising when both airports are small and underserved especially leeds .

I was under the impression that the 5 hours on the ground in CMF from LBA was decided by the management. Just to give the weekend skiers the whole day on Sunday to ski. Or maybe that was a wind up?
