I thought it was another 8, making 13 in total
The biggest question is where will the crews come from
T & C's will have to improve otherwise I would imagine it might be tricky.

It say's nothing. There will be a line as long as your arm of newbies desperate for their first job. I waited until i eventually had to pay. Considering the potential lost earnings i had whilst instructing my original decision was wrong for me.
And am now i'm doing what i want, where i want with a great bunch of folks.

BMI to EDI
"Bmi regional will increase frequency on its Edinburgh-Manchester route to six daily weekday flights from Sept. 4"
Source: http://atwonline.com/news/other.html...e=8%2F1%2F2006
Are BMI attempting to intensify competition with Jet2 on this route, or do they suspect that Jet2 are giving the route up?
I have heard that Jet2 had low loads on EDI - MAN

Jet2 at BFS
Are there any views on what Jet2's expansion plans at Bfs might be over the next year, if any? Personally I would love to see an early morning dept to Lgw ex Bfs and a service to Lgw, ex Bfs, that offers allocated seating. Travel on this route frequently and just hate the Easyjet seating policy. 3 flights per day would be nice and there is still the 18k pax per month to go after that still fly out of Bhd. Am I just dreaming?

San siro trips
Budget conscious business and leisure travellers from the North West will be celebrating today with news that Jet2 is to launch year-round low cost flights from Manchester to Milan. The news comes after Alitalia has decided to withdraw its services between the two cities this winter – with fares from only £24.99, it is the first time that Manchester will have direct low cost flights to Milan.
Jet2 has confirmed that it will start initially with a four-times a week service on 29th October, 2006 meaning it will open up the likes of the Italian Dolomites and the Alps for boarders and skiers this winter.
Milan is a wonderfully cosmopolitan city, a real haven for shopaholics, food lovers and football fans, all of whom will be delighted to know that Jet2.com is now offering truly affordable fares from Manchester.
Philip Meeson, Jet2 boss, said: “We’re getting used to coming to the rescue of passengers in the North West – BA has previously pulled routes from Manchester and now the Italian flag carrier is at it.
“However, it’s actually fantastic news for the customer as the larger airlines simply cannot compete on price, so while the service will simply switch from one airline to another, prices will tumble.
“For example, our fares will start from £24.99 one way inclusive of taxes, if you try to book now with Alitalia in early September, the cheapest one-way flight is £75.80 rising to £213.80.
“We are committing to a year-round service and plan to increase to a daily service in 2007, so whether it’s winter sports, shopping, sightseeing or business, book now to take advantage of the lowest fares possible.”
Tourists will not be the only ones to benefit from the new service, attracted by low fares and the convenient location of Milan Bergamo Airport – it is situated on the main A4 Autostrada offering excellent road connections to Genoa and Turin in the west, and Verona and Treviso in the east – interest from the business traveller is sure to be high.
Football lovers will not be disappointed with Milan – the San Siro stadium, home to both AC and Inter Milan, is widely regarded as one of the most atmospheric stadiums in the world when packed with 80,000 fans.
The city aside, Milan is the perfect gateway to the world famous holiday resorts of Lake Garda and Lake Como, ideal for those staying a little longer in one of the most scenic parts of Italy.

BMI's increased frequency on the route was probably the final nail in the coffin for JET2. I wonder will BMI maintain their 6 daily flights now that they've eliminated the competition? Not all bad though... This freed up capacity will probably translate itself into a couple of new JET2 routes.

anybody know exactly which flight has the 80% discount fare on it , cause it certainly aint none from blackpool ? cause an alicante flight costing 119 one way times that by 2 pax and its looking cheaper to buy a package holiday with thomson!! what exactly defines a 'lowcost' airline? and i appreciate that it say up to 80% , but surely theres laws stating about advertising these sort of offers, i know it could be from a different airport and time, but does say september and checking flights for alicante for an example even if the cheapest flight is £39 what are we as cutomers suposed to know is an indicatd dicounted flight? i think personally all airlines can claim to be at fault with the advertsing of fares so not just having a dig at jet2 in particular. just think that the offer in particular isnt really clear stating what filights especially when checking on the low fares finder... appologies for waffling on.. id be interested in what other people think on that subject

take-off
Don't know much about advertising to be honest. However, common sense tells me that they are only going to give (up to) 80% off the flights they need to. The flights from Blackpool to Alicante at £119pp one way will almost be full. I had a quick look round and found seats available on various dates for £1 from Newcastle to Cork. Also, having a general browse I saw fares on other routes from £7.99, £14.99, £21.99 and so on. Some pretty cheap fares knocking around if you don't mind where and when you go. Normally these ultra low fares are only available to the people that book many months in advance.
