It emanates from this website. It's a Wiki site that anyone can edit and apparently has been subject to silliness in the past. The timescale alone (Q1next year) is difficult to believe.

Ah i see so could be someone messing about!

It wouldn't neccesarily have to be one or the other. TUI and Thomas Cook are proof of that and I'd also thought any announcement at that time of year would be for winter 2019 or summer 2020.

Good point jerry, incidentally does brs have any spare stands?

I also read the WIKI page, so I Checked the Jet2 careers site, no mention of either airport there.

 

[superking]

If true about Jet2. They are looking for pilots for BHX.

 

[Sherburnflyer92]

It's bravo sierra.

I mean BCN as another base considering the bases abroad are so far PMI and ALC (two of the busiest by weekly departures).

Believing is seeing. I don't believe till i see.

Just like Wikipedia, that site for pilots anyone can edit. I could tell you they are going to order 25 787's. There not but i could post it there. Oh and if you look on that note - it states they are acquriting 2 757-300 from Condor. I rest my case.

Always take anything on a Wiki site with a very large pinch of salt.

I believe yes and they are building more.

Yes they are. Three were built a couple of years ago, one more last year and two more this winter, with another two for summer 20. Also building 320/738 stands on the south side (ga/biz jet/shuttle flights etc area).

 

[Sean123]

Ah thanks for that info tyl

Something’s going on ...

 

[Jerry]

Something’s going on ...

Going on? What do you mean by going on? Are the airport in talks with Jet2?

 

[superking]

Something’s going on ...

what made you say this. Please tell us then we can talk about it..

 

[CWL94]

West Country is BRS to me, not CWL.. so why is it in this thread? Not fair building people’s hopes up if it’s not going to be true!

 

[Jerry]

I'd be surprised if Jet2 launched CWL or BRS for Summer 2020. Big gap at Manchester to fill let alone other airlines. If the airport was able to pull a Jet2 base off it would be one hell of a coup!

 

[Tinkerman]

CWL or BRS not explicitly mentioned, but implicitly.

Nothing to get excited about yet, but something worth keeping an avid eye on.

The UK as an entity has some rather large capacity gaps to be filled, CWL is top of that tree by percentage passenger loss due to the loss of TCX, but low in terms of figure.

Unfortunately, i’m not involved with the same circles as i have been previously, but just putting two and two together ... And possibly getting three !

 

[Jerry]

Although I would love Jet2 to come to Cardiff, I suppose my fear is that they will do an Easyjet and place themselves at Bristol and just attract people from southern Wales there.

 

[Sherburnflyer92]

I see an easyJet announcement.

I see an easyJet announcement.

What for Cardiff?
