Ask the Q on the SOU airport thread and a very nice kind ATC chap on there TCASFan will give you the definitives

Let us also not forget that just because an aircraft in an airlines fleet could operate from an airport, doesn’t mean it could when taking into account company procedures for economical performance…

I think the days of smaller bases are over at Jet2, costs a lot to put a base together, and there are benefits to having a fully self handled setup so there has to be a critical mass. That’s why I think LGW will be the eventual (and possibly final) piece in the puzzle.

Request: There was talk afew weeks ago suggesting that Jet2 planned to lease a World2Fly A330-300 to be based at MAN for the early part of Summer '23 season. Can anybody confirm whether this is going ahead? I'd like to make a booking on it if so. Thanks.

As far as I know, World2Fly is indeed operating from MAN from the 29th of April onwards until mid-July, on FAO and DLM routes.

16th airframe for Stansted this summer. https://travelweekly.co.uk/news/air/...nsted-capacity

One of those ex-SAS/Flyr frames I assume?

[OzzyOzBorn]

Thanks for the info, sdbelgium.

All the 738 are interchangeable so could be anything

Do jet2 have any variations for short field performance like Ryanair do ?

Yes. All the factory new frames are SFP, so GJZHJ onwards and GJZBA onwards.

However there will be variations, GJZBT onwards will be mid life aircraft. In recent years they have also taken some much younger mid life aircraft from the likes of JetAirways... such as GDRTL..P... among others. Some of which may be SFP but can not confirm.

I'm personally looking forward to the update on when the first bacon butty is sold onboard.

They are talking about jet2 on a jet2 page, if you don’t like talk of jet2 then don’t read it..
or just keep your comments to yourself

This is something big for a company that only just a few years ago we all thought would never order a big order as they have nor the manufacturer of choice they choose. It’s a big event for the airline. If you don’t like it don’t read it. Ignore it like any sound person would do….
