Interesting that Toronto Hamilton airport is being served from Doncaster instead of Pearson International Airport. That decision based on fees and slots at YYZ I imagine. This still leaves things open for LBA-YYZ, which would surely be a more attractive option to Jet2 - better onward connections within Canada and the US for a start. It would also fit in with Jet2's unofficial policy of tending to service the major, as opposed to the peripheral airports, in major cities.

Toronto would be a great first entry for Jet2 into North America. Could one of Jet2's fully laden 757's get off the ground at LBA and make it to YYZ non-stop. I presume the answer will be yes....but might aswell ask the experts??

A daily 757 from LBA could be sustained. Look at the daily capacity from MAN - no doubt "west yorkshire" fills at least one of those aircraft a day.
