Seems like it’s just a very convenient coincidence. Or from the other side, perhaps the LS code encouraged them to move to Leeds? Very unlikely I’d say but worth noting whilst we've been pondering...

That may be, but it doesn't alter the fact that the LS connection goes back over 40 years to the time when the carrier's ancestor was based in Bournemouth and the Leeds connection was not relevant. See Flitefone's post (above) on the 19th.
Oh yeah I wasn’t arguing that, I was just stating that both of the locations are in fact in an LS postcode, after another poster said they were not. a very happy coincidence indeed |
G-GDFF is back from Victorville and back in service.

The connection to a Leeds postcode was not intentional, but no doubt a handy marketing ploy for a business putting down new routes in the north.. Smart company! the Herald doing the Channel Islands flower one happy days |

There is also the potential of another aircraft from Hi Fly, possibly another A330.
A330 from Hi Fly next year maybe. This year no. And Jet2 are not a late mover. |

Where is this information coming from? It's very late in the day for another A330 from Hi Fly considering, more then likely, all the numbers for Crew and Training crew on the different aircraft has already been established and is underway.

Several pages back on this forum it was mentioned, as it was originally the intention to have 2 A321's from Hi Fly (Can't remember the date or post number).

This definitely won’t happen now. The program has been signed off now and if anything Jet2 will now be very cautious with the Coronavirus situation. This may require for flights / holidays to be adjusted. Particularly if the situation doesn’t improve in northern Italy

It’s now on the AOC. Crew training flights start tomorrow.

What ever your source is. It is wrong. Having just come out of a major check clearly by its flight radar tracked activity AN is due to stay. Otherwise it would of been flying around just like AD and AH which are the next two to leave the fleet.

Increases for PMI, MAH, ACE, TFS, CFU, HER, JSI, RHO, ZTH. Decreases for CHQ, JMK, ALC and GRO. At present 226 weekly frequencies for Summer 2020 and Summer 2021 - so no real growth. Just altering the programme around to reflect best sellers one would imagine. |

Silly me! I missed the bit in the headline '
Foreign Office tells Britons not to travel to Spain unless it is essentialthat exempted Jet2 holidays. |
From the Gov.uk website:
The Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) against all but essential travel to the regions that the Spanish Ministry of Health have designated as areas of community transmission of coronavirus, as follows: Madrid and La Rioja, and the municipalities of La Bastida and Vitoria (both in the Basque Country) and Miranda de Ebro (in Castilla y León) ('Health' and 'Summary' pages) |
