i read that it was going to be 3 routes from southend not a 3 weekly flight
|
sorry my mistake
|
Slightly off topic.. But does anyone know if/when G-CELW, G-LSAD & G-LSAK will receive the full Jet2.com livery? The latter 2 of which still retain their white fuselage, while 'LW still carries basic Channel Express livery!
Thanks for any info.. |
i think AD and AK for staying as thay r coz there on lease i think LW slaying as it aswell
|
Theory was that some of the aeroplanes would have white fuselages as that would make it easier to apply decals for winter lease work, such as being carried out by AK at the moment.
|
hi i facebooked southend airports saying is it true that jet2.com will be starting flights to 3 destinations next year and thay repleyed saying There are strong rumours going around at the moment, on top of Germanwings and Germania. It looks promising but nothing confirmed yet
|
Expansion at NCL
I see Jet2 have announced expansion at NCL, with Flights to Bodrum, Rome, Reus and Venice starting from May 31st next year and a sixth aircraft based at the airport. :ok:
|
plus additional flights on Faro/Alicante/Mahon/Malaga/Cork/Prague/Krakow...good news all round for NCL.

Posted by DCTen on the Southend page:
SEN Ops Jet2 will be operating SEN-CGN-CRA from january 9 on, using LGW based crews, then Germania will be flying to CRA from May on (Charterflights) as far as i know Jet 2 B 737-300 , Germania A 319 Any substance in this....? |
Really? Talk about a WEIRD route...:rolleyes:
|
it s not weird, considering there is a big automobile plant in cra
|
The route will operate as Ford sole use charters as far as I can gather, but I'm not sure of the flight frequencies. It seems that Germania will take over the route in the Spring with A319s but whether that will then become a scheduled service remains unclear.
|
Still havent heard of the delivery days for the 3 new 737's due this month :(
Any plans to fit the other 757's with winglets should be cool. |
When in gods' name will they give a bit of cheer to Blackpool, and give us a new route, i don't care where, just somewhere................:{
|
Whenever BLK gives them a route they can make a few bob on - they're not in it for the the laughs!
|
There must be somewhere that would work well from BLK Other than the usual costa's , not that i'm knocking those area's , just somewhere bit different....
|
LBA-TFS:
Hi,just wondering which AC they are using on the 23rd down to TFS?
Many Thanks. |
SynergyX,
Should be a 757-200, although I have seen 737-300s operating LBA-TFS recently as well. |
What's going on! How come the all white Boeing 737-300, G-GDFB has gone back into service with Jet2 flying the LS207 Leeds - Murcia service this morning?
I thought this aircraft was withdrawn from use and been scrapped... |
That was G-GDFA. G-GDFB was going to be returned to its lessor.
|
LBA - TFS
Hi,just wondering which AC they are using on the 23rd down to TFS? |
G-GDFB
Have jet2 bought this aircraft now?
|
Yes they have bought it
|
They bought G-GDFA to break up for parts.... as far as I know G-GDFB is leased and due to be returned to the lessor soon.
|
G-GDFB was leased & was (very nearly) returned. It was I believe out of service ready to be returned. At which time the decision was taken to purchase the aircraft. Having concluded the purchase it has now returned to service.
|
G-GDFB has now been bought, it was due to go back to its lessor, but they must have got a good deal to keep it! :)

Liverpool
I'm hearing from the Servisair guys that Jet2 are looking at sticking an aircraft (some people are saying up to 4) in Liverpool for the summer. Would be nice to see them there.
Anyone care to comment on this??? |
Couold be to prove a point to MAN for letting Ryanair base there. Easyjet not brining the 7 aircraft. (delay in getting it may be part of it but you can be sure that Ryanair are part of the reason. EZY said the same day that they were not happy about FR basing in MAN.
Would be great if its true. |
I'm afraid I haven't heard rumours at work but it's all a bit late to announce a new base and routes for summer 2012.
One thing though..... They will only do it because they think they can make a tidy profit - not just to annoy the Manchester Airline Group board of directors! |
I'm hearing from the Servisair guys that Jet2 are looking at sticking an aircraft (some people are saying up to 4) in Liverpool for the summer. Would be nice to see them there. Anyone care to comment on this??? It's now the middle of December - shouldn't they have flights on sale?? etc, etc.... |

Would be great if its true. If they are indeed planning a move into LPL then the more likely trigger is Michael O'Leary stating that RYR won't be expanding further at LPL, which along with EZY's fairly static size there may have led Jet2 to see if there are any gaps worth filling. The income v expenditure model for them will be different given the different fleet strategy compared to EZY and RYR which may mean they can make money on some routes that the others can't. |
Yes - they might be able to find one aircraft for next summer but four?? Where from, crews? etc, etc... It's now the middle of December - shouldn't they have flights on sale?? etc, etc.... The airline is announcing routes regularly at the moment so selling the seats may not be as big a problem as thought but time is tight though. |
In my opinion, it would be more easy to see a seasonal base in ABZ with one aircraft.
|
I'm hearing from the Servisair guys that Jet2 are looking at sticking an aircraft (some people are saying up to 4) in Liverpool for the summer Also surely there must be significant overlap with their two other large bases nearby at MAN and LBA? |
From the senior management - "There's no money in ground handling". Don't think they would self handle unless there was no alternative, hence why they don't self handle at other large bases like Manchester.
|
According to Jethros LS's next addition to the fleet arrived in NWI today. The 737-800 is ex Air Europa (EC-HGP) and will be be registered G-GDFF.
|
There's a difference between slipping in the odd extra flight at bases where you're already well known (and selling well) and selling new routes from a new base. Also, aren't BLK flights already on sale for next summer? Also, one extra aircraft has already been announced for NCL next summer and I think also for GLA?
|
Can't help but notice on photos of the new aquisition that it doesn't have winglets! Will this be rectified or are J2 planning a complete 'mongrel' fleet? |
Just to confirm;
LBA & BLK are complete self handling MAN & NCL are front of house self handling PMI, AGP, MJV, ALC & FAO are all self handling. Whilst overheads may be slightly higher with self handling vs contracted handling, efficiency and revenue control is greatly increased. A lot of the self handling stations in Spain previously did not have revenue agreements with Jet2, so employing their own staff meant overheads were increase by around 10% but major ancillary revenue incomes are now made, more than offsetting the increase in cost. As for LPL, don't think it's gonna happen. It would be too close to home for MAN/BLK. The only way I could see it happening is if a couple of 757's are put in to operate holiday routes for Thomson/Thomas Cook but I really doubt it will ever happen. |
A Boeing 737-800 has arrived reg. G-GDFF and it has come from Air Europa. It does not have winglets though.
Also read off another forum that G-GDFG has also arrived and that one will be a Boeing 737-300 and painted into Jet2 Holidays colours. Not sure who it is from though. |
