Just been announced that Jet2 are stopping Tel aviv route from MAN as of November 4th. Wonder why this is? Even though easyjet have started flights it doesnt seem to have affected passenger numbers! anyone have any ideas?

Yield maybe?

What interior does the travel service a/c have?

Quite a few seats, over head lockers and toilets I gather:)

Jet2 EMA
 

Now Jet2 have got 1 757-200, 1 737-800 & 1 737-300 currently based at EMA what else will join at the base in May a 757-200, 737-800 or a 737-300? thanks

Don't they have a leased A320 based at EMA for summer?

I heard that had been changed to a 737-800?

YL- registered A320 postioned into EDI this evening and will be operating flights this weekend.

Take it that's an A320 from Smartlynx.

Yes it is, in an all white livery.

Finally something modern, shame the rest of fleet is not Airbus

A320 is the way to go these days far better aircraft than the 73-800.

The EMA based Travel Service 737, OK-TSA has Jet2 leather seats.

And Jet2 livery too.

Been repainted white with all the Jet2 text on top in red

As a pilot who has operated both Boeing & Airbus aircraft, I know which I'd rather have. And it isn't the 'Winged Renault'.

Anybody heard anything with regards to NWI opening as a base?

DADDY-OH! :

Here here!

Just a shame the bean counters at Boeing didn't allow a 737 / 757 all new replacement using new technology from the 787.

Nothing new yet that will replace the 75 for performance / load / distance. No one say 'what about the A321 or 737-900' please!

Sorry to go off topic there.

DADDY-OH!
 

As an engineer, the old Ford pick up truck is getting to labour intensive now, and let`s face it, a bit behind the times?

I don't see why it should be. TOM, DHL, AWC, & TCX all seem to manage to keep a decent despatch rate. Access to spares & high quality engineers should be able to keep these unique aircraft in the air generating profits & offering unparalleled flexibility.

the only aircraft to replace a 757 is a 757........period
