JET2 I must say that I feel that there are some extremely blinkered postings being made on this thread re Jet2 & 'lack of' S08 expansion at NCL. Back to basics & JET2 are simply not meeting their financial targets with a recently published profits warning reflecting that although there was increased turnover, margins were down on projections. Add to this background their well documented proposals to exapand at LBA, and common sense indicates that something has to give. In the short term at least it would make more sense to review it's margins on it's current route network, rather than the more risky strategy of commencing too many new routes. On another tack this is probably one reason why they are not in any hurry to commence a NYC service out of NCL or anywhere else for that matter.
