I've heard 8 aircraft thrown about for a long time, definitely before the 757's went because I was hoping for 2 757, 2 733, 4 738

You could argue that yes they have delivered "expansion" but we used to be almost guaranteed 4/5 new routes every year from them, I hope S17 has a similar announcement. Thessaloniki, Kefalonia, Vienna, Budapest... Kos maybe? All seem like gaps Jet2 could fill. 2/3 weekly Paris would be lovely, slightly more affordable than Jet2 and has the advantage of Jet2citybreaks. Berlin I'd rather see Easyjet or Ryanair do but still, would be nice. It would also be very pleasant to see Pula or Venice return. Toulouse, I'm not sure... Did that ever get decent loads, I think it only operated for 1 season. I wonder if Jet2 are stuck for expansion, I can't really think of that much more they might be able to do
