Jet 2 @ TFS
GDRTF has been at Tenerife for a couple of days so maybe the aircraft in question?

Does this mean there is always a crew based at TFS purely for standby purposes? Or is it solely the aircraft in case of tech issues? If that's the case, it could be tight for crew hours at times.
TUI also base an aircraft at TFS for the winter season but this is utilised everyday on flights. |

G-LSAG again?
Flew LS917 MAN-TFS yesterday (11/11) but didn't return. The resident G-DRTF did its first ex TFS revenue flight and brought LS918 back to MAN just a couple of hours late. G-LSAG gone AOG again or just ringing the changes with the 737?? |

None of the ex-ZB Airbuses are going to Jet2. The first 6 are TCDD, DP, DE, DK, DB, DG all from storage Shannon. |

G-TCVC & D have been added to the Jet2 fleet list on Planespotters

Ex MON G-ZBAM and G-ZBAO in hybrid MON/TCX livery. I wonder if they'll now get a total makeover?

The J2 Airbus fleet will only have CFM engines.

To go AOG once is bad enough, but to go AOG twice in the space of a week, at the SAME destination Surely the writings on the wall for this one. |

It's still AOG in TFS at the moment.

There's a 737 (-300 I think) on the ground in Toulouse...tech or another issue?

G-GDFM on LS6986 - a Charter - Lourdes possibly
At BHX today 11 fairly busy based aircraft operating 15 flights plus they have added a 12th to take Wasps to Bordeaux for their Challenge Cup game. Pete |

Correct, AG is the first to be retired and will be gone from the fleet within days, as planned for a while, so not related to the 2 unconnected recent AOG incidents.

coming back to MAN tonight hopefully and then it isn’t planned to have any passenger flights until it completes its end of life/de-Jet2 Ified and will then position out on Tuesday morning for the scrap yard. Nothing to do with it’s recent tech issues - this has always been planned. "Better to travel hopefully than to arrive" - R.L.Stevenson, meaning the journey is more enjoyable than the destination. Never more true than in LSAG's case. |

Also, fairly ironic on what looks like your first post and you report on a different aircraft type to your name :P |

On 23/11 Jet2 would have operated GLSAG for 13 years after acquiring from China Southern. I always think the 757s look more 'graceful' on Approach than the 737s. Not that it matters. |

Very nice DjerbaDevil

Not enough wheels! |

Granted I don't know the state of this old bird under the hood, but there was not one hint that it was anywhere near ready for the heap. Very sad. The 738s just don't come close from a PAX point of view. |

Flew on LSAG last week down to TFS and I have to say what a tidy, tidy aircraft it looked. The cabin was utterly immaculate. It sounded great and felt great.

Has the move gone ahead as planned? I can't see any reference to it on FR24.
As sad as it is, the days of the Boeing 757 as a passenger aircraft are numbered. TUI are withdrawing their ones that are a lot younger that Jet2's. I've noticed that 2 of Jet2's 757s haven't seen service for a while. G-LSAJ and G-LSAC. Are these both withdrawn? I know AC had a few technical issues over the summer season. |

Boeing 757-200, G-LSAD is next to go in April 2020. This will be followed by Boeing 737-3QC, G-CELY in May 2020
Both Boeing 757-200, G-LSAH & Boeing 737-300, G-GDFB are set to go in June 2020. |
Profits up 3%

Anymore news on the 321s? Are these long term acquisitions, fully part of the family? Crewed by Jet2 cockpit staff? If so, is this the start of a build up of used (and maybe new) 321s in the fleet? Is the list of the initial 7 known yet? |
