Jet2 aircraft shortage?
Flying MAN-AMS today, 1 hour delay, Capt announces delay due to shortage of aircraft, reasons for shortage he "won't go in to" - anyone know if something sinister is amiss at Jet2, or was it just some unscheduled maintenance/repairs and he was just having a bit of fun being evasive?! Excellent Captain though, he shares a name with a (former?) radio2 DJ and sounds just like him!!

Ah, I see, thanks! Judging by some of the oil stains on one or two of Jet2's 737's I'm not surprised this happens from time to time! Hazard of flying an aging fleet I guess...
Anyone know if Jet2 are planning to follow EZY & Ryanairs lead and update their fleet at some point in the not too distant, or do they not have the capital available to purchase new aircraft just yet?
