There is a bit of confusion here. Just to confirm, this is where OPERATIONAL aircraft will be based, not factoring in 1x standby 737 & 1 standby 757.
Glasgow - 1 733, 2 738 & 1 757
Edinburgh - 4 733
Newcastle - 4 733 & 2 757
Blackpool - 2 733
Belfast - 2 733
East Midlands - 1 733, 1 738 & 1 757
Leeds Bradford - 7 733, 1 738 & 3 757
Manchester - 2 733, 5 738, 3 757
This is what the flights are on sale for, next years aircraft additions have not been acquired yet so things can change and I'm sure they will. There will be a standby 737-300 based at Leeds and a standby 757 based at Manchester to cover the 738 and 752 fleets. Summer 2013 should see a fleet of 44 operational and 2 standby aircraft over 40 operational this year. The plan is to have 50 operational aircraft in 2014 along with a new base.
The fleet numbers given above don’t seem to add up.
At the moment there are 11 x 757s, which do agree with the above.
There are only 4 x 738s in the fleet at the moment, so according to the list above there should be another 5 coming (and not six as previously reported) for next summer 2013.
There are 27 B733s including a B733 freighter in the fleet at the moment, which are 3 more than the operational aircraft+standby B733 reported above totalling 24 B733s.
Is JET2 going to sell/scrap any B733s for next summer 2013 perhaps?
