True Blue,
Looking at the schedule, the turnaround times downroute for AGP/PMI/MJV from BFS are 1 hour, which is generally a good indicator of 757 use by Jet2. That would make sense and would give 2 returns per day. 6 days per week on a BFS based 757
MON - PMI - MJV
TUE - AGP - MJV
etc

The existing 2 based 737s will then be able to pick up the rest of the schedule as well as possibly accommodating running some of the LBA and BLK flights. The Friday morning 8:30 departure to Milan, which cannot be fitted into the 3 aircraft schedule will, I assume, be operated by operating BLK-BFS on Friday mornings or a positioner from another base.

Hope that helps.

The schedule thus far does seem to suggest 7 x 757s in total for for next summer, 3 LBA, 2 MAN, 1 BFS and 1 MJV/NCL. Given they only have 5 at the moment, presumably a deal to secure 2 more is in the pipeline.
