Hi rightandrule,
your last post sounds very realistic, I cant see Jet2 coming into an untested market and where it is not well established and where the market is saturated. From what I can see Jet2 is probably the most differetiated model of the LOCOs operating in the UK, take BFS for eg it got off intensely competitive routes where there was over capacity and left the battle to EI & EZY, they focus on Freight and for passengers fly to destinations that are niche, probably high yield, low frequency, summer markets and for the markets that they do serve in competition with EZY/EI/WW, there is a big push on Jet2Holidays. In summary my point is how could Jet2 differentiate in a London Market?

The only way I could see Jet2 coming to SEN would be on the back of a cargo contract with a 733 QC, is there frieght operations at SEN? and if so is this the plan, if there is one?
