However it does mean one crew can do the out and back trip and have their required rest period in NYC.
It doesn't add up ! Surely the incremental costs of EWR parking fees, coupled with the costs of a 3 night 'Beano' for a full complement of crew, not to mention the loss of alternate revenue, would seriously erode any financial justification for running such trips in the first instance. The case put forward that there is not an alternate revenue source for surplus 75's if it were true would suggest that JET2's business plan is itself suspect and that perhaps 'desperate times require desperate measures'.
