Edinburgh
Anyone know if Jet2 are likely to base a 757 at Edinburgh in the near future?
With GSM having been lost there is a large gap to fill to destinations such as Paphos, Sharm, Funchal, Turkey, etc. GSM's load factors were usually in the high 90's so there's definate demand. Be pretty straight forward to recruit additional crew.
Thomson & Thos Cook aren't interested and Easyjet & Ryanair are unlikely to serve those sorts of places from EDI. I believe it's an ideal opportunity for Jet2.
The cheapest flight this summer from EDI to PFO with Monarch is in the region of £380!!!! Come on Jet2, Edinburgh needs you!
