Isn't Jet2 on record fairly recently, announcing the Bournemouth base and adding there would be no further bases? If that is still so, then no Gatwick. I'd like to see Jet2 get rid of the 733s now, once and for all and improve the ground support vehicle maintenance and baggage handler complement. In other words, work on what there is before overstretching.

Wished they'd reinstate LBA - EDI, got family up there and its an awful drive! Come to that got family near Hampton Court that drive is as bad, so LBA-LHR be good

They are buying TUI….

 

[SierraHotel]

Seriously?

 

[BCFC]

Seriously?

No idea…but that would be a game-changer.

 

[Finger66]

And probably the only way TUI ever get a huge presence at LBA. Maybe a way for the DSA supporters to finally get Jet2. Joking aside, can't really see this being the announcement - but you never know!

 

[SierraHotel]

Maybe the new airline should be branded "Jet2ui"?

 

[Finger66]

Got a certain ring to it that in just the same way as Easyjet2 has!!!!!!

Not to mention that this would give Jet2 instant access to a a long haul fleet

 

[Finger66]

Fair point @Bigman but TUI are a Boeing operator so not really much synergy/logic in that so think this is another one wide of the mark. Wonder if it all turns out to be a bit of an anticlimax when announced. Pug has hinted at something in the Jet2 general thread rather than the LBA one which didn't smack of what we mat determine as game-changing

 

[Len Fish]

And coincidentally Phil Meeson has sold some of his Jet2 shares!

My guess is Jet2 buying TUIs UK ops or merging with EasyJet who are looking to develop and expand their package tour business.

Exactly what I thought.

I thought Jet2 were a Boeing operator. I wasn't of course being too serious given I am out having a few jars in my local

 

[Finger66]

Well if we want to put 2 and 2 together to make 5, easyJet are an Airbus operator and apparently (I do say apparently) there execs have been seen at LBA recently. Defo could be something in either of those you mention @Len Fish

Yes they are but they are moving away from Boeing. Perhaps time for home then lol

I only had 3. Any good news is welcome in whatever form it takes

 

[Seasider]

Apparently MAN are publicising a Jet2 announcement on Thursday, so if it involves them, it has to be A330's long haul.
Just my thoughts.

PS I am flying with them Wednesday afternoon, I'll try and get some inside information.

 

[Finger66]

Well a day of guessing has put us another day nearer the announcement. I just hope it isn't an anti climax whatever form the announcement takes

Or even moving Jet2 Ops Manchester.

You’ll find nothing out on Wednesday Seasider!
We’re playing the guessing game just as much as you!

Or even moving Jet2 Ops Manchester.

Why would moving Ops to Manchester be a game changer?

It’s not.

Why would Jet2 move far away from the local and experienced people who have worked there for over 15 years based at Leeds?..

Who’s to say the MAN announcement is linked to Jet2..?
