Well, there you go. Thanks for sharing. That definitely makes the CEO an odd ball then for fleet planning doesn’t it.

Once the neo start coming online all 3 ceo are off to BHX

First A321neo

The first NEO, G-SUNB, is at XFW and looks completed, according to pictures shared by @Tobias_Gudat on Twitter. This will wear the Holidays livery, assume it will be painted in the next couple of weeks. Currently sporting a light blue tail, light blue engines and winglet with no company branding at all.

They COULD, but they're really intended to replace the 757s due to constantly increasing maintenance costs.

Pleasant flight with Jet2 on Saturday LGW-TFS. This was a whole aircraft charter for P&O Cruises. Jet2 seem to be encroaching into what has been largely a Tui operation over recent years. It still is on long hauls (mainly to BGI) but there were lots of a/c substitutions over the Winter (mainly using Wamos) which didn't go down well with some of P&Os customers. Wondering if Jet2 will muscle in on this aswell with the A330's? (although it is mainly a winter op)

The charter flights are solely a winter offering, just because the company has spare aircraft capacity around the raft of C-checks and EV runs. During summer, the sole focus is on selling seats and holidays through Jet2holidays, with .com seats taking up the slack. Jet2 very rarely operates ad-hoc charter flights in summer. There are no plans to take on larger aircraft than the A321, with the ACMI leases only there to give additional cost-effective capacity on prime routes.

I would LOVE if we did long-haul routes, but I don't think that's on the radar right now (and certainly not for at least the next 5 years).

More than likely the stickers/decals will be applied in the UK by Airborne Colours - just like the 737's were when they came over from Boeing.

Thanks for the info. I’m reliably it’s meant for delivery on the 31st, presumably across to EMA and then ready for the first flights out of MAN for next week

I think you may be adding 1+0 and getting 2. This aircraft seems to be operated by JetOneX not Jet2

…here we go again.

Exactly! Expect to see it full of produce to/from the Channel Islands in the coming weeks.

So no official handover - 1st A321neo for Jet2 in full colours - or is that what G-SUNA is going to be? I guess LS just want as many planes delivered as possible for peak season.

GSUNA is already registered so won't be a Jet2 aircraft. GSUNB is the first A321neo.

Unfortunately no SUNA for us….. it’s already been registered by a hot air balloon 🤣
