BLK-BFS is no more than a filler route, the 2013 schedule for this route, only came after the other and new routes had been sorted, and with reduced frequency.

That's true..jet2 are flirting with NY, I reckon that may not last forever..Jet2 has a different feel than any other budget airline, I have flown with.

No - I don't agree as such..Yes they have a heavy focus on leisure, but then again there is leisure in say Florida. Maybe in the future..Jet2.com serves Jet2 holidays, I really can't see how this makes them a charter airline.
A US connection is a long way off I agree, but Jet2 have come a long way is a short while..i think they have ambitions.
Regarding MAN-LGW. I did not mean to imply that route was beneath them, just they don't seem interested in domestic routes.
