My wife flew out this morning from LBA to Malaga. Due out 09.35 on ES-SAP. They were told the plane had to be changed and finally departed at 12.01 on LSAB. Under the circumstances very good from Jet2. Anybody know the reason for the change.

The prices will probably also come down too once the dust has settled but now with just LS & TUI there is a good chance this is going to drive up prices significantly - not good for the likes of NCL and LBA. |

Difference being is TCX didnt fly out of LBA , So the demand increase has soared more at NCL. Hopefully this demand can be met in the months ahead.

Well if we can trust any operator to remain flexible and change with the times as demand peaks and dips, then it’s most certainly Jet2 |

Hopefully ! Jet2 announced on Twitter via a reply that they are seeking to add further aircraft and seats at this time.
MAN has quite a few too apparently including some days of 3x rotations to TFS. There will be other bases too, I am sure, and they might as well utilise their spare winter AC availability! |

Additional seats for TFS, DLM and ACE from what I can see from NCL. MAN has quite a few too apparently including some days of 3x rotations to TFS. There will be other bases too, I am sure, and they might as well utilise their spare winter AC availability! these include BHX, MAN, NCL, BFS for now. All the flight numbers are 4xxx so are easily identifiable as additional flights |
You'd be amazed if the likes of Jet2 etc haven't been watching the situation carefully and don't already have plans in place.

I am sure they have, probably for several months

Like a fare increase of 400% from one day to another and luggage charge on top of that. Haven't Thomas Cook clients suffered enough already!

If I was the company I'd gladly trade 10 million in extra profits for reputation (not increasing prices). Reputation would reap rewards in the future (next year).

All the people whinging about lost holidays - if they've booked with TC as a package, they'll get their money back. If they've booked flight only there are other ways they could get their money back via insurance or credit/debit card chargebacks. Nobody is forcing people to pay inflated prices. The prices have gone up as a result of demand. It's basic supply vs demand and it is run through a computer algorithm. People need to have a reality check and think of the thousands who are without a job and won't get paid this week. |
Whats the chances of Jet2 taking up MCO from MAN ? TCX leaves huge hole in that particualr market and cant help think its a perfect fit for LS. Unthinkable ??

Would need be a 330. Jet2 cant do wrong at the minute and with such a void, the 330 already employed by them and the fuss they could make of it I dont doubt they make a huge success of it. I am not ITK, but I cant believe they are not at least discussing it. A no brainer launch in to long haul leisure routes for them IMO.

I'd be so pleased to stuff VA in my has-bin. Lol. Pricing dependent, of course. |
There are TCX routes that LS would not suit, Seattle, Boston, JFK etc, but Cancun, Carribean, Florida etc will all be short of seats next summer now, they fit LS's portfolio and what better time to dip your toes in the next stage of growth. I hope they have they bottle to give it a go...

Strikes me as a golden opportunity for Jet2 to have a go at the long haul market in the pursuit of further growth. If they don't go for long haul now they'll never have a better chance with the shortage of capacity next summer. There's lots of potential opportunities within the European market though so perhaps they'll focus on these instead and stick to what they know works. Would like to see them be bold and go for it. |
