Jet2 retrenchment at MAN
I believe the only reason this is happening is because Jet2 haven't made as much money as they expected from the MAN base in 2007.
There was alot of leased-in capacity (at MAN to keep the schedule) and one suspects their yields fell to prop-up the load factors.
Hence Summer 2008 is looking thin from MAN - a surprise? No! Loads of competition in the North-West (from LPL) have made times tough for Jet2 there whereas at LBA they can sustain routes a plenty.
However it ain't just Jet2 feeling the pinch; Flybe to Bergerac and Limoges gone from MAN as a result of RYR from Speke....discuss!
