Summary of Jet2 routes from BRS in peak-summer 2024

I've compared the Jet2 schedule from BRS for the second week of August 2024 with the same week in 2023. It's impressive to see Jet2 operate such a large base of 8x B738s from BRS, which is still a relatively new base for Jet2.

It is impressive and no doubt both the airport and the airline are very happy. It will be interesting to see whether they'll go to double figures with based aircraft in the future and if the airport infrastructure can accommodate that.

 

[Marko1]

2025 at the moment still looks to be 8 based with some increases in some and decreases in others ( skiathos and Rhodes are two examples of the latter).

 

[Marko1]

2026 now on sale - mixed bag - no new routes , few frequency increases and a few decreases.

 

[Jerry]

Was very surprised that there were no new routes.

 

[Marko1]

I was too but then Manchester and Birmingham didn’t either . I’m guessing the base is now mature ( likely to stay around 8 based ?)

Neither Santorini nor Naples come up on the holiday or flight website? So whether they've jumped the gun with a press release or got it wrong? Idk.
