Yes, ALC will remain as both an operational and standby base, PMI will be fully operational. Jet2 have had a PMI base this summer however it has been operated using a leased Aer Europa B738 with mixed Aer Europa and Jet2 decals and Jet2 cabin crew.

HI All, long time lurker, first time poster.
The latest ATOL figures show Jet2Holidays are now the 2nd biggest tour operator, Given Jet2Hols didn’t exist 10 years, this is quite remarkable. (Monarch were previously 6th)
Rank Licence Holder ATOLNumber Passengers Licensed
1 TUI UK Ltd 2524 5386845
2 Jet2holidays Ltd 9618 2936420
3 Thomas Cook Tour Operations Ltd 1179 2389227
4 Expedia, Inc 5788 1416227
5 On The Beach Ltd 10017 1205480
6 British Airways Holidays Ltd 5985 786000
7 We Love Holidays Limited 10989 631066
8 Travel Republic Ltd 10581 610269
9 BravoNext SA 11082 384737
10 Virgin Holidays Ltd 2358 369488
With the loss of Monarch, it would make sense for Jet2 to continue with their expansion, as we've seen in the past few days they've added over 100k seats in BHX/MAN with a few extras in LBA/STN too

Just read on another airline's forum, that Jet2 are apparently going to be leasing two A330's from AirTanker next year!
Can anyone confirm if this is true or not? And will they both be based at Manchester?

With all this additional capacity being added, and additional aircraft expansion at certain bases, are we likely to see quite a few 2nd hand B737-800's being added to the fleet this year?
I know that there are 14 new aircraft due by April 18, but I thought they had been accounted for in fleet replacement and the original planned expansion for 2018.

It may also be that some 733s which might have been retired will be kept longer than initially planned. Are any of the 757s due to be withdrawn yet, extensions for those aircraft may also be possible?

Interesting thought, when was the first due to be delivered, as the production line
moves so fast may well never be built but parts may well be moved on to future builds
so I guess you would need to ask Boeing.

If there is a lack of capacity in the fleet a step in the right direction would be to drop the disastrous programme into Madeira (FNC). I would be surprised if there is any net profit there once the costs of all the diverts is taken into consideration.

Just out of curiosity how many diverts have there been at Funchal in the last 6 months?
Knowing how temperamental the weather at FNC can be, it's probably more

Why drop FNC and replace it with GIB as they are two different markets, even though there have been a few diversions at FNC I don't see any reason why to stop flying there as Jet2 can always add GIB in addition to keeping FNC.
Madeira is a popular island for the British and having been there myself on numerous occasions I wouldn't like to see it being dropped just because of a few diversions.

They are not simple diversions diverting to ACE TFS for example is very costly with no option to coach pax I was diverted to ACE along with four other aircraft spent two hours on the ground then tried again two attempts to land at FNC then diverted to LIS crew out of hours hoteled over night then finally landed at FNC a day later ... very expensive

I'm very aware of the logistical nightmare any diversion from FNC can create but in the long term I don't see any reason why it should be dropped regardless of a few diversions.
