going out on a whim here by saying it’s coincidence, jet2 love the term ‘to fit the operation’ they’ll send aircraft anywhere and everywhere however I do see the certain AC won’t leave other bases or are only shared via 2 for example FJ and FF without the winglets always seem to be at STN or MAN. However I wanna say the others just get allocated when needed i suppose.
You would have to say then it’s highly likely there is an operational reason for this and Jet2 are purposely allocating new builds to NCL and it isn’t random.
(This excludes the odd sub that flies in to cover a delay, does a couple of runs and then moves on).

Just thought I would share an update here, should anyone care. A month since my question on this and there have been several swaps at Newcastle. Every swap has been for another new build. Even the one based second hand unit swapped for a new. For the last week, 100%, or all 8 of the units were new.

But you were right, it's been at MAN from day 1 but finally had a swap down route in PMI on 18th.
