G-SUNB is finally on its way back to Manchester after two weeks in Antalya, presumably with a new engine.

Morocco to be announced. Announcement may be delayed due to the earthquake there.

Reportedly Agadir and Marrakech from BHX, BRS, MAN and STN for Winter 24

NCL??

Lead to believe Agadir will be more than those 4 bases. Leeds, Newcastle, Liverpool, Glasgow too.

Wouldn’t be surprised, if Jet2 are looking to expand their winter programme I can’t see it just being limited to the bigger bases.

That would be a substantial expansion of the UK market into Agadir if true. Currently just a few flights a week between EZY, FR, TUI from their main bases. When I went about 10 years ago it was even smaller.

We’ve booked a holiday next year flying man to Tenerife. There where Two flights available to choose one departing 15:20 possibly a 737 and one departing 15:45 which looks to be on a a330.
Is it likely that both these flights will operate or will one get dropped depending on passenger numbers ?

I would say just look at how many flights there are to TFS a week

I would say Jet2 are pretty good. If they schedule it, they operate it. As a general rule.

Things could obviously still change but I don’t reckon there’s much risk involved in booking either of those flights.

Is there any word on more 757 withdrawals or going in to warm storage this year? Looking at the winter schedule to TFS/ACE/FUE/LPA, the 757s don't appear to be featured much, with most of the work there utilising the A321 fleet.

Avgeek question. Jet2 charges for desk check in and encourages you to check in online. Happy to do so, but if I drop my bag and ask nicely for a paper boarding card (souvenir) having presented my iPhone complete with digital boarding card, is THAT chargeable. Never had an issue yet but just want to be sure....

Every time I have flown with Jet2, I’ve had the option to reprint at the airport. Don’t think you’ll have a problem.

On my last Jet2 flight from STN I was given a paper boarding card when dropping my bag, despite having checked in online and having shown my mobile boarding card.

I flew BRS to Corfu 3 weeks ago and due to some mix up my travel agent had not booked us seats and the three of us were scattered around . A problem as My wife has recently had an Op that might compromise use of a drop down O2 mask .I asked at the airport if it could be sorted so at least I or my daughter sat with her. No fuss despite a very full flight -lots of clicking away on terminal and three seats together get assigned . Paper bording passes and no hint of having to pay for it or what a nuisance it was. I rate their staff very highly

Thanks all, love how useful pprune can be.

G-SUNF has started test flights today. Should be delivered within 10 days or so. G-SUNE not far behind. G-SUNG now on the production line.

A21N
 

Would that mean BHX gets it first A21N when number 6 arrives?

The booking engine shows an aircraft with 232 seats from 14 December on Tenerife.
