Jet2 A330 (AirTanker lease)

I was having a look through the AirTanker fleet, to see which aircraft was possibly joining Jet2 for Summer 17. (Thomas Cook have G-VYGK, used for last couple of years , and also have G-VYGM joining for Summer 17).

I'm wondering if it will be G-VYGL, as this has recently just been painted in all white(from the normal grey), and would allow for the red 'Jet2' titles to put on, much like Titan's A321?

It would seem the logical choice...

Since those three are the only ones in use for commercial passenger services, G-VYGL would make sense indeed.

You are correct, G-VYGL is indeed the aircraft heading to Jet2 for the summer.

When BHX was launched as a base for 2017, the Jet2 announcement indicated "3 new 737-800's" would be based there from April so perhaps some of the new deliveries will be based there...?

New doesn't mean the newest ones, could be any frame starting from G-JZHJ.

The A330 is confirmed to be painted in full jet2holidays livery so white is a good starting point. Painting should be completed in next few weeks.

I think you'll find the base is opening with four of the new 737-800's.

When is the A330 due to arrive?

Is it likely to make an appearance at LBA if only for PR purposes?

G-VYGL will arrive at Manchester on the 24th May.

As for the Leeds visit, it has no reason to visit Leeds, I understand it will be solely based at Manchester, including maintenance, if needed.

I`m sure I read somewhere that MAN will be losing the B733 before summer is this correct and if so do we have a date?

Forward bookings must be doing well as Jet2 are adding yet more flights from Leeds/Bradford for summer 2017.

Ibiza increases from 8x to 9x weekly.
Corfu increases from 1x to 2x weekly
Zakynthos increases from 3x to 4x weekly

G-DRTA is due to ferry from PMI today to NWI to complete its re-configuration from Air Europa to Jet2.com. Should be ready 1 month from now all being well.

G-DRTB should only be a few weeks behind it, (ex transaero EI-RUG, 17 years old, no winglets).
