Sorry if this is mentionned elsewhere - G-LSAB has not flown sine 07.01.24, is this now on its way out?

it's due for WFU this winter, but i wouldn't read this downtime as it being retired yet. Could be wrong though. Sad to see AB go.

Very sad, also means only one 757 will remain in the silver and red livery (my favourite of the two)

Don’t quote me on this but believe AB may have had a reprieve for one more summer.

in other news around 50 737s are to receive split winglet upgrades shortly, including the ones received new from Boeing. A sign that a mixed fleet is intended for a good while.

Is there any sign of any of the older 738s leaving anytime soon?

Or any further news on the 300s?

All 7 300s are staying for at least another year, all in use at LBA on some days.

Would imagine all the 737NGs will be staying around too until airbus deliveries increase.

Wouldn’t make financial sense to be getting rid of owned airframes only to have to lease more in to cope with expansion, doubt jet2 would change a habit of a lifetime that’s got them this far.

Does anyone know where the other 4 acquired 2nd hand B738's are coming from?

At least one from Turkish Pegasus

Two from Pegasus, formerly TC-SCF and TC-CPY which are DRTV and JZDE on the G register.

Rumour on the LBA boards is another is coming from Sunwing. There's been a couple of 'expected arrivals' on FR24 at either MAN or LBA from Toronto as SWG9002 but nothing actually flown. The frame is rumoured to be C-FWGH which has been at Dothan Alabama since November.

No reprieve for AB as she's operating her last revenue service for Jet2 today on the Manchester - Grenoble rotation

Jet2 taking the Exeter Chiefs Rugby team to Biarritz from Exeter today, for their game against Bayonne tomorrow.

Nice treat for the passengers on LS372 today which couldn’t land at BFS due to the weather. Ended up diverting to Paris CDG of all places.

Guess that it’s not any more awkward for the passengers and crew than landing at an English airport in the grand scheme of things, as a flight across the water would still be needed. So may as well take it across the channel to calmer weather.

On delivery to Jet2, Sunwing Boeing 737-800 C-FWGH arrived into Leeds this morning from Toronto as SWG9002​​​​​​

Any updates on Sunwing C-FTOH? Was to to be G-JZBY but has been in Prague now since August last year.

I curious about this one too, latest photo I can find is it parked up in PRG, Seems to have had a new engine and some patchwork around the tail.
other than that, nothing. Wonder If they've found faults with it and it will end up as a NTU 🤔

When I passed the hangers in Prague Airport last month it was parked outside and didn't seem to have moved since September.

C-FWGH ex Sunwing arrived at Leeds Bradford yesterday. Said to have been allocated G-JZBZ.

isnt that 4 posts above?

My current info is that:

(G-JZBY) ex VPCGF (CFTOH) currently at Prague
(G-JZBZ) ex C-FWGH
Plus 3 others

Jet2 staff have been advised not to contact me, which I respect.

Loose lips sink ships? :rolleyes:
