Can confirm that none of the said expected aircraft have been delivered to Jet2 as yet.
Its still early days, Jet2 have plenty off time until all the expected aircraft are to be introduced into service.
The 2x Allegiant Airlines Boeing 757-200’s N903NV & N904NV are having winglets fitted while Boeing 737-800WL, PH-HZC was moved at Amsterdam just before Christmas.

Allegiant 757's
757 Speedbrakes
The 757's I believe were for expansion by Allegiant for new Hawaii routes and it was announced in March 2010 with great fanfare.
March 5, 2010: ALLEGIANT TRAVEL COMPANY TO PURCHASE SIX BOEING 757 AIRCRAFT Company Plans to Say "Aloha" to Hawaii | Travel Is Our Deal | Airfare & Hotel Packages from Allegiant
However several articles around November 2010 stated that the plan was
delayed until February 2012 due to ETOPS problems. Hence the aircraft were destined for Allegiant but they do not require them for over a year and hence the rumour Jet2 came in for them.

If the above link opens it explains the delay.

A typo I think as KZC is a KLM F70, I believe HZC is the one, which is last shown on acarsd as flying on Christmas Day!!!

Keep an eye on the CAA site G-INFO as this is pretty useful.

Acording to JETHRO'S Jet2 will take the 2 ex TUI 757s which will be having winglets fitted and the Transavia 738 but the other 737 is another 738 not a 733 and will be coming also from TUI but will be an ex German machine. Lets hope it all comes out in the wash. All are due before Summer 11 starts. Nice to see some NGs in the fleet.

You will find the winglets are already fitted to the one parked up in LTN, the other is in the middle east having a check and getting them fitted.
My understand is that Jet2 have already carried out some of the acceptance work on the B737NG, but some problems have arisen between the leasing company and Transavia on the hand over.
Jet2 are also getting a B737 classic in time for the summer, along with the second NG.

Very exciting news for Jet2. Hopefully all this new aircrafts will make for another record breaking summer for them.
Wondering about the liveries now. I'd really like to see the 737-800 in full Jet2 colours.

I notice that the new Jet2 aircraft are actually showing as CHARTERED (to Jet2.com) rather than the other aircraft which are showing as OWNED (By dart Group).
Any particular reason? Is this because they are just keeping them for a while, rather than buying outright like the rest of the fleet?

While back on this thread it was quoted that jet2.com were gonna announce new flights from BFS to Larnaca anymore news on this.Think they were gonna use B737/800 aircraft.

All expansion for Summer 2011 has been announced, and the route would not operate during the winter. At a guess if Belfast gets an -800 based then the earliest would be 2012 for Larnaca.
Out of any of the Cyrpiot routes I would expect Paphos over Larnaca as it is much higher yielding and is used by a lot of ex pats living in the south west of the Island compared to Larnaca which is primarily holiday makers going to Aiya Napa.

So assuming BFS gets an -800 to fly to larnaca, what other routes will it be used on? And where will the -300 go that it is replacing? I think it may be wishful thinking from your contact.
