I'm guessing the majority of these now 30 new aircraft must be replacements if PM's professed desire to have 70 aircraft in the fleet is true, as they're already at 62. Should certainly increase their capacity replacing 300's with 800's.
Does anyone know if the purchase of 30 new 737-800s is part of a plan to eventually go to a simplified 1 aircraft type fleet? If so when are the 737 - 300s and 757s likely to leave the fleet? I assume that as Jet2 are still picking up used 737-800s that they intend to run a mixed fleet of new and second hand for some time.
