Difference being is TCX didnt fly out of LBA , So the demand increase has soared more at NCL. Hopefully this demand can be met in the months ahead.

Well if we can trust any operator to remain flexible and change with the times as demand peaks and dips, then it’s most certainly Jet2

MAN has quite a few too apparently including some days of 3x rotations to TFS.
There will be other bases too, I am sure, and they might as well utilise their spare winter AC availability!

these include BHX, MAN, NCL, BFS for now. All the flight numbers are 4xxx so are easily identifiable as additional flights

Leeds-based airline, so what do you expect? Who was it who once described a Yorkshireman as a Scot with all the generosity squeezed out

Exactly. They also have a responsibility to their shareholders.
People have short memories. If the price is right next year, they'll travel with whoever.
All the people whinging about lost holidays - if they've booked with TC as a package, they'll get their money back. If they've booked flight only there are other ways they could get their money back via insurance or credit/debit card chargebacks. Nobody is forcing people to pay inflated prices. The prices have gone up as a result of demand. It's basic supply vs demand and it is run through a computer algorithm.
People need to have a reality check and think of the thousands who are without a job and won't get paid this week.

Would need be a 330. Jet2 cant do wrong at the minute and with such a void, the 330 already employed by them and the fuss they could make of it I dont doubt they make a huge success of it. I am not ITK, but I cant believe they are not at least discussing it. A no brainer launch in to long haul leisure routes for them IMO.

I'd be so pleased to stuff VA in my has-bin. Lol. Pricing dependent, of course.

There are TCX routes that LS would not suit, Seattle, Boston, JFK etc, but Cancun, Carribean, Florida etc will all be short of seats next summer now, they fit LS's portfolio and what better time to dip your toes in the next stage of growth. I hope they have they bottle to give it a go...

Strikes me as a golden opportunity for Jet2 to have a go at the long haul market in the pursuit of further growth. If they don't go for long haul now they'll never have a better chance with the shortage of capacity next summer. There's lots of potential opportunities within the European market though so perhaps they'll focus on these instead and stick to what they know works. Would like to see them be bold and go for it.
