Jet2 A321

Morning guys, just curious, since jet2 cancelled their previous orders of airbus aircraft, could we expect to see a return of them in the near future, ppjn says 1x a321 in the fleet and 1x a321 on order. Cheers

I was under the impression that they were going to take 2 (YF/YG) of the planned 7 A321s, but so far only one (YF) has been operational. I don’t have any insider knowledge though so may well be completely wrong, but this is backed up by Planespotters, Jethros, FR24.

I would expect that at the moment nobody is looking to take on new a/c, unless they are already contractually commited, and the cost of cancellation exceeds what it would cost to take them on.

YF is busy. Spares and service support for what is a single Airbus amidst an otherwise Boeing fleet can't come cheap. It must have seemed, and probably was, a good idea at the time..
Gaining operational experience though.

There will be 2 for next summer.

With probably more after that to replace the B757.

Jet2 still want a heavily denominated boeing fleet, with 68x 737-800 on order until corona virus hit not sure whether they're brand new or used, hopefully the airbus see a return, cheers chaps!

The -800s can’t be brand new for obvious reasons...

But they have, over recent years, acquired many of the last brand new -800s and I believe they cancelled the acquisition of a couple of older ones.

1 is in service, the other is on the books and is going through it’s entry into service checks.

can’t quite see where you get 68 orders for 737-800 from. Please clarify.

On PPJN under orders:

68x 737 and 1×A321 though PPJN was updated and the 737 orders were removed and was left with the single airbus order! So I wouldn't take it for gospel.

[ROC10]

Guys, the 737-800 is no longer in production...

If you’re referring to second-hand acquisitions, then I believe they had a few more planned and cancelled those. I never heard of it being anywhere near 68 though? Maybe that was the total figure including all those delivered over the last few years?

[Modular Halil]

They're taking older ones from other airlines who are swapping to the neo of course

Its beginning to look like the adding of flights and holidays to Portugal is going to be short lived.
Increase in the last week above the 7 day rate of 20 cases per 100,000, which the UK Gov considers triggering quarantine conditions.
My guess is that Greece will be not far behind after last weeks cases in Zante.

I wouldn't worry about Greece just yet. The figures for Greece are around 14-15 average for the past few weeks. Below is the daily figures for 31 August. Greece is actually down from a high of 14.9 3 days prior. The geography of Greece and the way the local authorities clamp down immediately helps to keep the numbers in check. They do local lockdowns like the UK but the restrictions are harsher and work.....
