Seven Boeing 757s I heard! All was mum until now?

[VIKING9]

and why would Jet2 want 757's unless they are maybe venturing into Cyprus or Canaries maybe !!

[Mooncrest]

A few months ago I was in the company of PM and the subject of 757s was raised. He had already dismissed the aircraft on the grounds of cost. I can't remember whether that was acquisition or operating; I suspect the latter.

That was then and this is now. This rumour has been circulating at work for a few weeks now so watch this space.

[HOODED]

Would've thought it unlikley for Jet 2 ops but maybe a few at the right price for conversion to Freighters for Channex?
The rumored LBA/TFS could be a reason as they could use one on the AGP, which runs 3 times daily in summer with the 733, and still do a TFS.
Doesn't sit right though a 752 with an LCA. PM's no mug though, guess we'll have to wait and see.

A family member asked me when the new Cyprus flight was going to commence from Leeds, can anyone confirm that Jet2.com have actually announced the service?:8

[wobblyprop]

well, the canaries is on the destination map. Guess the 757 would be more comfortable going that distance :E

Tenerife has been advertised starting Ocober 05. Aircraft are due for delivery in a couple of weeks. Rumour has the Reg's will be G-LSAA & G-LSAB.Also big rumour at moment is Jet2 to New York from LBA.
Watch this space:suspect:

[BombardierCR7]

Rumour has the Reg's will be G-LSAA & G-LSAB

no, it's not a rumour, it's true and has been know for the last few months.

Also big rumour at moment is Jet2 to New York from LBA.

No it is not a big rumour at the "moment", it was a big rumour six months ago. There was no truth behind it then or even now.

[Leodis]

BombardierCR7 to be fare, we new about the Tenerife 'six month' before its announcement lol:}

[LBA]

14 loop is so with it, TFS has only been announced for about 6 months, and the aircaft already in the UK, already having the reg G-LSAB on the 1st 757 :rolleyes:

Just out of interest AA does have some of the equipment fitted to make it ETOPS capable,such as a fourth generator.

[MarkD]

woptb

no plans to put winglets on AA too I suppose? :D

[14 loop]

It appears we have another '14 loop' on PPRuNe, however with a slightly different 'handle', ie '14loop' as opposed to my '14 loop'.

Beware of imitations! Stick with the original 14 loop that resides near Compton!! You'll see that out new friend 14loop doesn't know their geography as the 'tunnel' passes beneath the runway, NOT the loop.:ok:
