Jet 2 - Summer 2016

It looks like Jet 2 have released further flights for the Summer 2016 season, it now appears that they will operate 216 x weekly services for the Summer peak (up 42 x weekly services on last year)
I'd heard they were basing an extra 2 a/c, but that (an extra 42 flights) would represent an increase of just under 25% on the number of flights. Even if, heaven forbid, all 8 Turkish services were pulled, it would still be 20% up. Another factor is that by dropping the long sectors to Egypt, it may enable an a/c to squeeze in 2 extra returns to the nearer destinations in Europe.

Whether it amounts to the same percentage in seats available will depend on the mix of 737s/757s
