Its not just a case of making it easier for existing Jet2 customers but nicking business from their principal competitors.
Understand that, but what I’d suggest is if you put pins on a map of where bases have opened in chronological order you’d see a pattern. Are the people in Merseyside and North Wales within an hour of a Jet2 base? I suspect yes. Are people in the South East within an hour of a Jet2 base? Not if you live in South London, Southern Home Counties and South East Coast which is a huge market with zero Jet2 presence. Where would you prioritise putting your scarce (and expensive) resources?
