yeah your right, AG went off to EGHL on Thu after it operated the MJV out of NCL. Well no RHO will be gettin upgraded out of NCL then so thats put an end to that rumour.
Will winglets be benefitial on a 757 thats operates mainly to spain? just curious, i know it obviously isif your doing long sectors on a 757 such as LBA-EWR but how much fuel is it going to save doing LBA-PMI/ALC/AGP
I can imagine a bit would be saved on PFO/TFS/LPA/ACE and the lovely SSHs coming up

Im not suprised given the price!
BA is charging £299 in their world sale at the moment, id rather shuttle it to LHR and fly BA/VS/AA/UA or whoever else than sit on a crampt 757 where you still have to pay for all your drinks and snacks onboard!
Would much rather fly on a 747/767/777 or even a 757 that has less seats! The price is rather high and the dates are VERY limited

How many seats on NYC flights?
Her indoors and daughter going. Full monty upgrade just over 1600 pounds for the 2.
In my experience I dont really agree that wide bodies have more space, why?
Single isle x 2 I think.
Now if you are really rich, like a rock star,you get to fly in a really tiny jet.

I belive that the routes they are looking at and the price of fuel that now the first five aircraft, AA - AE will all have the modded wing fitting.
The winglets are not just for the NYC charters, that wouldn't be very cost effective for just four flights.

Sorry for a rather late reply to tsr2 mentioning the young lady being killed on 'm6' , been away for over a week, i'd just like to say that i meant no disrespect to the person or persons that died or were injured, but despite that the m6 is nightmare to get down any day of the week, night or day it it getting beyond a laughing matter, thinking 11pm last night would be a good time to travel back from midlands got me on a a diversion taking in the m42/m54/m6 sat dinnertime was no better when coming back from wales...although on brighter note did see the Airbus A380 coming out of MAN heading toward lpl way...now wheres me anorak

Whats routes are they looking at?
I imagine the CE or MD would be the only ones who really know so don't let anyone on here tell you otherwise.
The only reason I mentioned that is because the words came from the MD's mouth

Will Jet2 be getting 767's any time soon?
Heard a rumor they might be leased one from Flyglobespan for S09 but don't think that would be true and i think Flyglobespan are planning to use all 3 of there 767-300's for S09.

Re: 757 Winglets
I'm certainly no expert on this but the wisdom of spending so much cash on the 757 fleet must be questionable.
Most of the Jet2 B757 aircraft are 20-21 years old with 50-65 thousand hours on the clock. By the time the work is complete and with a 2.5 year payback, the aircraft will be 23-24 years old before any return on investment.

Your forgetting the extra range / payload factor. Just under 400km range or an extra 4.9 Tonnes.
It's one of those, belive it when it happens rumors but all the people who have told me it's happening are those who have been involved in the decesion making process, I'll say no more.....................

Is it true that there will be only one B733QC based at BFS this winter operating the Mail Flight and an occasional Chambery?
Apart from the LBA flight, are they operating any other routes ex-BFS this winter?

and when AG returns I believe AH is off for a C check in Aug and it will be followed by AI.

Flew on LSAI last week, It sure looked as thou it had done a few miles.
No IFE & screens on it, Quite a few rusty wing bolts too.
