Remember last year, the lucky ones who booked first paid £579* whilst those who waited a while paid £259*.
* Basic flight cost including taxes.

Whatever the cost you need to make sure that you are insured/pay by credit card as getting your money back from Jet2 when they cancel flights - Paris & Krakow in the last month - takes considerably longer than it takes them to part you from you hard earned dosh.

Extremely rare that a flight is cancelled and when they do they have historically looked after their passengers very well, with hotel accommodation,meals and alternative flights. Not something I have seen with any other lower cost operator.

Hi guys,
i realise this discussion has been going on for quite a while, but I was speaking to a member of CC and a Jet2 engineer yesterday, they were both talking about getting trained for the 767, and that there is/was one or 2 767s floating around in Stansted very slowly being painted up for the job

That would make sense, to say the least they couldnt bring them in immediately when long haul seats aren't being sold right now, but it looks like Jet2 are getting prepared for the possibility of the widebody (this is only what ive heard crew saying). Personally i hope they do well and give the likes of Globespan a run for their money

Doubt very much there will be much competition with Globespan unless a large program for Canada is in their sights. There has been specualtion Globespan are considering SFB and carribean from the likes of MAN and LGW when the new 787's arrive or as early as next year with the introduction of a 4th 767.
Do we think jet2 will be going for a 767-200 or 300? (if it does actually happen)
What kind of routes? (if it does happen eventually)

Also heard credible rumours about the 767 on the horizon however, it has been said before! (...so I'll believe it when it comes over the threshold!)
As to which type: it depends what / where they want to go as to which type they aquire. The -300 offers more seats so more potential return but the -200 would give better performance out of LBA (if that was the proposed point of departure.)
On another topic the extra 733 rumour must be true: GCGET appeared over the threshold at LBIA this afternoon! It was promptly tucked up in the hangar - no doubt to receive Jet 2 decals over the weekend.

Additional 733
G-CGET is not listed on the CAA fleet list for Dart Group....but it is listed under Jet2 for the take-off weights (and the job said I couldn't investigate my way out of a paper bag 
):
http://www.caa.co.uk/docs/1425/Jet2c...et20090622.pdf
Checking the serial number (27455) it was recently G-TOYE (BMI Baby) and was only registered as CGET on 17th June.
Could this be the 3rd a/c for BLK next year???
