Titan Airways are to once again operate on behalf of LS for S16. Using a 212 seat A321 (G-POWN), which is to be added to the Titan Fleet in April.
Does anyone know where the aircraft will be based?

Thank you for that information JohnnyF@rtpants. Now that I have to drag my ancient bones to Alicante in order to fly to Edinburgh I fear that I shall transfer my allegiance to the Irishman's outfit.

I'm going to have to use ALC too to get to the holiday home, it's 15 mins from Murcia. Unfortunately it's all about ££ these days.

Hi all
Managed to get some time off due to heavy maintenance and booked on to jet2 GLA - ACE 13/3/16. Just wondering if its a 738, what the interiors are like, seat pitch, seats non recliners??? etc. Usually flown TCX past 5 years but J2 much cheaper this year

Most flights from GLA are B737-800. Seats don't recline , seat pitch is generous (not sure of the exact pitch) due to the clever seat design. The interiors of all the aircraft are very new, they have been refitted and had larger overhead lockers fitted to help with room in the cabin.
Enjoy your trip.

Jet2 crew bases
Skipness,
Should Alicante not be on that list? They do tend to have a 733 stationed there, I understood that some crew were based there also?
The backup ac has been able to position to airports around the network quickly and hence keep the operation running smoothly. I've seen examples of where the plane was deployed to Pisa and Tenerife before from there for rescue missions. Potentially has upsides in terms of minimising costs from extensive delays while keeping things on track..

Jet2 will now be acquiring 4 second hand 737-800's instead of three this winter, although the Ex. SunExpress aircraft which was due will now be an Ex. Transaero Aircraft (Source: jethro's UK and Ireland Airline Fleet Listings).

Inaugural Edinburgh Airport Flights
The first flight of the Edinburgh Airport expansion in 2016 left on Friday bound for Tenerife. Today, the second flight bound for Lanzarote departed, and is well on its way. The one 738 based there is set to have a very busy season indeed, alongside what is currently 3 733QC and 1 733WL
