A red tail from the newer batch, owned and fitted with a Sky interior. The rumour is that HJ has been chosen, although that could still change. Apparently it will be based at Liverpool with 24/7 operations, no slots, a good weather record, and plenty of football teams and major business headquarters in the area. Interesting development.Do we know which aircraft this is?
Made this observation fairly early on in the crisis and still maintain it has to be a possibility. Things generally look like like they are starting to go on a downward spiral which is running far wider than just LBA.After what Lufthansa did last night, Im starting wonder if the fuel crisis could see off Jet2’s ageing fleet of 7x fuel thirsty Boeing 737-300’s sooner rather than later.?
If so it would have a major effect on the Leeds/Bradford base routes & schedules.
Still going to be a big impact. A lot of production facilities damaged. Political situation will be fragile as well.Looks like the fuel crisis may not be going on far to much longer with the straight now open.
However the green lunatics and net zero freaks will continue to make life hell.
On top of that, even if things were fully resolved in say the next week, the overall recovery time from the impact of the war is going to be loooooooong so we are far from out of this situation. There are going to be interesting times ahead but as is said many times, Jet2 don't get much wrong so they will know if it makes sense to retire any or all of their B733s earlier than planned. The one definite is we know we have 18-19 months max (no pun intended for once) to go before they are all retiredOk the strait of hormuz might be reopened. But we aren’t out of this fuel crisis yet.
Them empty fuel ships have to go to port, load up and then sail to the UK. It’s going to be another good 2/3 weeks before they arrive at UK refineries.
Oh and now the International Maritime Organisation (IMO) say they need further assurances that it’s safe for ships to navigate through the straight without hitting a mine and it will be in accordance with international law.
Must be getting ready for LUFC European charters when they win the FA Cup...

In all seriousness I could see sports teams (incl RL teams to Perpignan) being key users of this perhaps?
