Jet2

Snippet in the 'i' newspaper yesterday.

"Jet 2 is recruiting almost 1,000 flying staff and engineers and acquiring 30 new 737-800's. Jet2 chief executive Steve Heapy said: 'We have exciting plans to expand the number of destinations we fly to, as well as the number of UK bases we fly from' "

The 737-800's are supposed to replace their 737-300's, but that doesn't equate with planned route and base expansion. I wonder if they plan to utilize the smaller aircraft in their expansion plans, and wonder if SEN may be in with a shout.
