Manchester: Jet2.com Route News & Base Updates

[Comet]

Does anyone know how many and what type of aircraft will be based at MAN in 2020.

My understanding was
3 x 332
All the 752s (not sure how many that is)
4 x 321
? x 738

I know it has been said that an additional 5 will be based for 2020 and Jet2 could add more if aircraft come available but without any extras over the figure of 5, 24 based has been mentioned but unsure if this includes spares.

A run through of the current timetable does however produce 25 departures on some days both for first and second waves hence my question.

Many thanks

Jet2 Summer 2020

In the initial ACL report for S20 Jet2 were showing as having 3,473,788 more seats than in the same period for S19. This vast increase was due to them having taken the former Thomas Cook slots. This was a growth of 118%.

With the IATA Slot deadline having now been reached this increase has reduced to 48%, however this therefore calculates out at an additional 1,278,397 seats - if my calculations are correct.

That is still some hefty growth. I can see the largest A330 (388) been taken on, shifting the A330-200 to take over a B757 route, B757 shifts to take over a B737 route - the B737 provides additional uplift to other destinations. A quick look in the timetable shows the slot are now been used on ZTH - couple of pre 06:00 departures (earliest is 05:30).

I suspect there is more to come from Jet2. Will probably come in January.

Does anyone know which routes the 757 will fly on from Manchester?

 

[Sherburnflyer92]

For summer 20 or for the winter?

For summer 20 or for the winter?

Summer 2020 around late september early october time.

Think the answer to your question @Jerry is where are they not going?

All destinations in Canaries, Balearics, Turkey, Cyprus, Mainland Spain, Portugal (inc FNC) plus others. The list is long.

seems many flights vary day to day

I would reckon the A321 and B757 will be compensating a lot on capacity lost by TC and replaced by Jet2. I wouldn't be that surprised to see Titan spring back up in MAN with the 3 A321s to assist with uplift.

 

[Jerry]

Which aircraft in the jet2 fleet would have 38 rows? Is it the A321s?

26 Rows = B733
33 Rows = B738
38 Rows = A321
42 Rows (6x abreast) = B752
42 Rows (8x abreast) = A332 (1x Air Tanker aircraft with 320 seats)
45 Rows (8x abreast) = A332 (2x Air Tanker aircraft with 327 seats)

Thanks Severn!

The 3 Titan A321s will be based in Stansted again for Summer 2020, I would have thought.

There will be 4 Titan A321s leased to Jet2 for summer 20, all based in Stansted.

Doubling the winter New York offering to 14 departures

[Sherburnflyer92]

It appears Jet2 are increasing frequencies - AYT now to 13 weekly, DLM now to 14 weekly, TFS to 17 weekly, PMI to 29 weekly - probably a lot more which will appear in the press release.

What's amazing about MAN for Jet2 is that it is Jet2's largest base by over 100 weekly frequencies at peak. (around 330 at the moment).

 

[mullion]

First A321 is on approach to Manchester this time G-HLYF should land in 10 mins or so
