Garry8g,


Really? The post at the top of this page has the link with the info you are asking for!

Mr Mac
 

I'm sure you'll be pleased to know it is the regular friendly Jet2 cabin crew that will be trained up on that aeroplane.:ok:

LAX_LHR

No it doesn't. The post at the top doesn't have it in the daily breakdown format as given by 'Hull City AFC' on the operations for the A330 from Manchester, that's what I was looking for!!

Probably thinking over cautiously but I can see some issues with the 1 hour turnarounds on the A330, equally down route where airports might not be as efficient/have as much experience as MAN, but also at MAN where I presume the aircraft will pick up things like inflight meals, drinks, snacks, duty free etc... After all 377 people is a lot of people.

What happens with baggage? No pallets?

its palletted and every route down wind is very used to A330 ops. Thomas Cook, Air Berlin, Aer Lingus, Aeroflot, iberia etc etc

It's essentially a carbon copy of what Monarch used to operate so no issues downroute with handling/experience

Well I suppose so yes, but do they all operate 1 hour turnarounds?

I also noticed that it is a 180 seat A320 being used here, perhaps not Titan after all?

A330 ops
 

Not wanting to put the dampers on the A330 operation but do hope it does not go tech at Palma on a Saturday in July. Just wondering what contingencies will be in place for recovery. If full would need three B737s or two B757s. Keep fingers and everything else crossed everybody.

The A330 is wet leased from Air Asia. So are we to assume Air Asia crew to operate on all of the A330 flights?

Scratchingthesky
Do not know if the thread on 16th Dec has been deleted, but there is no thread with regards to crew there currently. Johnyf@rtpant has ID the cabin crew as being the "normal" Jet 2 Cabin crew, however nobody has posted as to who will be flying A/C, as currently as you are no doubt aware, there are no airbus A/C currently in their fleet. As it is a short wet lease will Air Asia be supplying flight deck crews, anybody know ?
Regards
Mr Mac

Surprised that PMI has 3 turns there and ALC has none.

Jet2 4
 

Mr Mac

It's a 'damp' lease so the owners supply the flight deck crew. Jet2 providing the Cabin Crew.

G-POWI and G-POWM will be 180Y, G-POWK will be 168Y.
All will be painted before Summer 2015.

So I'm assuming LS will be getting 'POWI or 'POWM?

By the way, there is a spare A333 in case of tech issues. According to Jethros anyway.

JB007

Thanks for your update. :ok:

Flybar and Scratchingthesky
Flybar thanks for the confirmation on the flightdeck crew. Scratchingthesky on a Wet lease A/C it is not mandatory that the flight deck crew come from the owners of the A/C company as it depends on the lease terms, hence my question, which Flybar qualified. Thanks all for the info.


Happy New Year


Regards
Mr Mac

perhaps if there is a longer term plan to aquire then its not quite as ridiculoud ad you appear to make out

EK77WNCL
 

No spare a/c in the UK, it means the planned a/c could be substituted by the other prior to delivery.

Oh right that does make a lot more sense than ringing KUL for a replacement and waiting 15+ hours if something goes wrong, when they can have someone like Pullmantur in about 5
