Does anyone know why Jet2 are releasing their routes so spaciously? most of them on sale from NCL now, apart from BGO and AMS, as well as TFS if it is continuing through summer. Also does anyone know what pattern the 757 aircraft will fly? The MJV comes in from MJV in the morning, seemingly to operate PMI then fly back to MJV in the evening to nightstop. Is that rotation planned to be 757 op?

Other tour operators should be releasing winter 07/08 soon, but don't expect much, winter is not usually the best time for new routes, though with HRG I could be proved wrong.

Whats that with XL in HEL, one of their crew in trouble? Scandinavia has very strict rules with crew and alcohol, I believe.

Until NCL actually gets a NYC service, there will be this constant debate. It is by the looks of it, a long way off. Not good news for the only airport in UK top ten without one, even LTN has the prospect of Silverjet! NCL does have its strong and weak points. it is very strong player in charter market and loco service to the costas, but weak in European business centres, with the exception of CDG, BRU and AMS. Also very weak in long haul market. Hopefully its weak points are areas the big wigs are trying to address.

IS GSM YHM service definately a 757 op. Heard rumours it could be ZOOM???!!!
