LBASpotter.....are the new NBE on a Wed or Tue?

Tuesday's by looks of things. Simple mistakes happen from time to time, especially when you got more important things on you mind.

Capacity on the summer Innsbruck route is planned to increase significantly next summer with the Flybe
Emb-170 operating this summer replaced by a Neos Boeing 737-800 next summer.

Hurtigruten will offer a Northern Lights fly cruise to Bergen from Leeds Bradford on 13 March 2020

Hurtigruten will offer a Northern Lights fly cruise to Bergen from Leeds Bradford on 13 March 2020

Must be a sign of them selling well, As that's Hurtigruten returning for a 3rd year, or is it a 4th straight year! They have been selling the March 2019 departure for a good few months.

 

[lbaspotter]

Santa's Lapland have released for sale there Christmas 2019 breaks from Leeds. Flights will operate into and out of Ivalo using Thomas Cook Airlines aircraft.

Departures from Leeds on the following dates.
3 Day Break = Dec 3rd & 19th
4 Day Break = Dec 14th

 

[lbaspotter]

Looks like specialist tour operator Superbreak has had a change of airline operator. There charter flights to Iceland were originally planned to be operated Polish airline Enter Air, but they are now showing listed as being operated by UK based Titan Airways.

Life without Jet2 and Ryanair at LBA would be very dull with this abysmal line-up from the main tour operators.

 

[a300boy]

Going backwards ! Jet 2 will no doubt they help us increase pax numbers.

 

[lbaspotter]

Well can you really call Jet2 a low cost airline now-a-days?
There flight-only option is not cheap anymore, and the is no way you can compare them to the likes of Ryanair, Easyjet, Wizz or Norwegian.
The way Jet2 business model operates now, they are more like a tour operator/Holiday airline eg Tui & Thomas Cook.

 

[airforced]

I've been sayig that on here for ages now but no-one seemed to listen or care. Far too much money around in Leeds was my conclusion.

 

[Bigman]

I don't see what the beef is here. Prior to about 2002 we had something like 50-55 IT flights a week. There are 21 on the above list, but significantly more with Jet2 as they offer IT as well as just flight only. They threw away their low-cost has some time ago and now offer a wide range of products including city breaks, specialist short breaks such as Keflavik and New York, as well as catering for the seat only market, which is important for those who use villas + ex-pats etc. You could argue we have around 200 IT flights a week!!

 

[paully]

It is amazing the eye watering prices that Jet2 charge out of all their airports and on most routes. But if people will pay it, good business for Jet2. Their business model has evolved into a version of Tui/Thomas Cook these days, although I hear some anecdotal evidence that Tui are starting to seriously undercut Jet2 on popular packages..I do hope they know what they are doing though.

I count 24 per week not 21 as stated above
