I operate out of a far bigger field, BLK is the playground.
I have admit though, everyone was quite annoyed, them taking more than a few hours to shift their shed off the active. Good to see good crew protocol involved though. Everyone jump!

I see Air Berlin have decided to go for an all Airbus Narrow body fleet. They say they'll need some more A320s probably from Alitalia. Should be an opportunity for Jet2 to pick up some more decent B738s. Just a thought.

Jethro 15. Those 3 are ex Hapag airframes. The Air Berlin fleet is younger so perhaps too expensive for Jet 2 but you never know, they may be able to pick up a couple at a decent price.

Off topic but do you know why your excellent page has stopped showing the date of your last update? I can see that you are updating fleet details but the last update still shows as 13th October.
Thanks

The Supreme Court have refused both Jet2 and Thomson leave to appeal the judgements in the delayed flight compensation claims.
Floodgates open as Supreme Court blocks Jet2 and Thomson appeals

After reading the posts about JET2 not landing at DAM due to weather it reminded me of being on the runway at Zurich and the snow clearing effort that was going on.
I was on an EZY flight and our pilot refused to take off even though other planes were. ( We could hear them)
His calculations meant he could get us up but should anything go wrong at the point of lift off , he could not be sure we could stop.
So we sat there until the snow depth on the runways was reduced and he felt happy.
Quite the right call in my opinion.

Airbuses?
Evening all. A post on the monarch thread this evening suggests that Jet2 will be taking the 2 monarch A330's and a couple of their A320's with a view to becoming an all airbus operator in the future. Can't quite see it myself but I am willing to be proven wrong. Any thoughts?
Doubtful. Jet2 is operating a 330 next summer on damp lease. Possibly a 320 as well as per the previous arrangement with Titan. That's as close as it gets.
My guess is that the above operations will partly be for evaluation purposes i.e. to assess the suitability of Airbus types for Jet2's business. Britannia did much the same about sixteen years ago with 320s from TransLift. In the event Britannia stayed with Boeing.
