Jet2 - 3

[EuroChallenger]

Doncaster

Despite being close to Leeds and even East Mids, surely there is some scope for 2011 for Jet2 @ Doncaster?

[rpmac]

I think Humberside would be of more interest to Jet2,especially as they are based at Leeds and now operate out of EMA.

GLA or PIK rumoured... ...

Jet2 at Bfs

What plans, if any, does Ls have for Bfs in 2011, any new routes? How many aircraft will be based there in summer 11? Looking at the timetable, I thought 3, but I could be wrong. I thought Turkey might have been on the radar out of Bfs with so many services on offer from other bases in 2011.

just my thoughts guy's, but i would have thought due to the close(ish) proximity don and hum have to leeds jet2 would be far better off going north of the border to gla, it could be a huge market for them next summer and beyond, also the same with bfs.i also think that 2 757s will be added to the fleet by next april.

Jet2 at HUY has been rumoured for years, i think it will stay just that

Doncaster would make no obvious sense, when LS opened their EMA base they said that it would serve the Sheffield market.

Hey all...ATCO here....sorry to invade the thread again....I sent a letter to JET2 headoffice to the address on their website as the phone calls cost 50p a minute.....at the start of August regarding a flight in July...no reply just yet....do JET2 reply to letters or are they still overwhelmed from the volcanic incident early on in the year?
I have sent a copy now to the CAA but they are asking if JET2 have been given enough time to reply

[TSR2]

Same happened to me so I sent a copy to their Leeds HQ and got a reply almost by return post.

Going back to 'Hero @ 30 000 feet, can someone answer me the following question:

is it perfectly legal to hypnotise a passenger on an aircraft and then land whilst in a state of 'sleep'?

[G-AZUK]

surely DB could have just snapped his fingers if he needed to be woken up, i'm sure Jet2 didnt plan this on the back of a beermat

[HXdave]

G-AZUK, i'm sure he could have done, if needed. however what i am asking is whether or not it is legal to do this or not. i mean, what would have happened if something had happened to DB, say a heart attack or something else that rended him incapacitated?

[purplehelmet]

hx dave.
im sure they said during the programme that they had to inform the caa about what they were doing, so one would assume it was all legal and above board.
as to db having a heart attack etc, i would guess that there would have been someone else onboard to take over if such a situation arose.

[sealink]

he was hypnotised onboard but was placed in a simulator for the landing. Not the real a/c is my understanding.

[GrahamK]

Glasgow base to be announced today?

[737 Speedbrakes]

Yes

Airline's new routes set to deliver 150 jobs to Glasgow - Scotsman.com

[GrahamK]

Routes are:

Alicante, Paphos, Dalaman, Faro, Palma, Nice, Sharm El Sheikh, Tenerife and Monastir.

So guessing a 733 and 757 to be based (or 2 x 757s?)?

[Johnny F@rt Pants]

Glasgow

1 x 737 and 1 x 757

[take-off]

Significant growth ? Does that mean BLK might be inline for something, Or Just wishfull thinking? Are they stringing along till they can wind BLK base down, hardly got any significant growth there, unless you look at the prices of course

[TWADDELL]

Glasgow

Does anyone in the know have any idea if/when Malaga will be added to the Glasgow routes? I'm sure it would sell well as there are plenty of us still missing GSM.

[airhumberside]

There is no obvious room in the new GLA schedules for extra routes in Summer 2011. Malaga isn't the sort of route that would be launched in winter so couldn't see Jet 2 serving GLA-AGP before Summer 2012 at the earliest
