Is it common for Jet2 flights from Leeds to stop off at Manchester and collect additional passengers? I have a number of friends where this has happened in recent weeks and just realised that my own flight to Chambery in April is flying from LBA via Manchester!

In a word - no.

To put a bit more meat into the answer, it's basically down to low load factors on the ski flights:uhoh:, some go from MAN via LBA, and some are going from LBA via MAN. The flights are being combined to try to save some costs I would presume, and are therefore allowing the flights to go ahead :ok:rather than being pulled which wouldn't suit those that have booked:{. It's not ideal, but at least you're getting there, if a little later than originally booked, and you're getting an extra flight for nowt.:cool:
