There is a reason FF & FJ never got the blended winglets, even had an engineer tell me but.... 🙈 I've forgotten. However, it’s not necessarily vintage/line number that is the reasoning. Note FD is one of the oldest -800s still operating in the world and has winglets. Not sure it will be arround long enough to get the scims mind.

you'd think GLA/EDI as furthest north would have exclusively newest most fuel efficient and all scimitar (or A321neos) … but yet no… at least no 733’s!

Does not make a major difference. The 321s are better placed at MAN/BHX, where demand is generally higher.

For now, but as deliveries ramp up would expect more bases to convert. Next year and 2026 will be the years it starts IMO The next is msn 12295, implies to me 2025. (Others more knowledgeable in airbus production rates may be able to correct me). As an aside, given the registration sequence for forthcoming deliveries, G-SUNN will not be utilised as it is currently a Robinson R44 helicopter. (I haven't gone any further - life's too short) |
G-SUNG still hasn’t moved, around a month since it’s (already significantly delayed) delivery now. Problem aircraft?

Rather have an Airbus than a boeing

Well the people who matter in the business obviously don’t see operating Rwanda flights as an issue at all, considering Michael O’Leary has come out and said he’s more than happy to use his aircraft. Maybe people can stop wetting the bed now.

A321neos are due at EDI for summer '25, until then it's the 737-800, until the SSWs have been fitted to the majority of the fleet it will be a mix as always. 737-300s fly out of LBA normally apart from charter/extra capacity operations (6 nations rugby in Rome).

Jet2s Boeings are actually very reliable compared to some of their new NEOs which has had some issues after delivery.

Isn't that called the bath tub curve for new kit?
Quite ironic as well that info elsewhere suggests G-SUNG isn’t a problem aircraft at all, and has instead been delayed by a lack of hangar space due to the 2nd hand Boeings’ service entry maintenance taking longer than expected. |
G-SUNG first revenue flight to lanzarote today
