Jet2 are set to a announce there 43rd route from Leeds with a New once weekly service to Split in Croatia for next summer 2013 season.

Flights to Split from Leeds are to commence operation from Saturday May 18th and run until the end of September using Boeing 737-300 aircraft by looks of things.

[Humberside]

Croatia does seem to be a growth market currently, with last years Dubrovnik increases (extra LBA/EDI-DBV, new NCL-DBV, new MAN-Pula) and now this new route

[Humberside]

Extra B757 for Summer 2013. In addition to what has already been noted, Gran Canaria is going twice weekly and Dalaman 4xWeek. Some routes, including Menorca, getting B737 to B757 upgrades. Will go through the timetable when I have chance

This is interesting, all the routes mentioned here are currently TCX routes, which are currently being finalised (apparently). Perhaps the extra capacity is for passengers booking packages through the Thomas Cook group?

[Humberside]

DLM: Up to 4xWeek, from 2xWeek this Summer (note extra flights have been added since it first went on sale for next Summer)

Ont on sale yet but Jet2 are set to announce shortly a new route from Leeds to Zante (Zakynthos) for next summer 2013.

[Humberside]

A current TCX route. Could be a seat share deal between LS and Thomas Cook, or it could be a move by LS to encourage TCX not to base at LBA for Summer 2013. Either way I think it's looking less and less likely TCX will have an LBA base next Summer. But with BA/ZB/TOM/extra LS B757, the loss of TCX - if it happens - wouldn't be a disaster

Zante will also be a new destination for the Jet 2 network

[rossbailey]

Dusseldorf = 6x weekly (No Change)

Well this is going to totally change once again, As LBA is now not getting its 4th based Boeing 757-200 next summer. Instead it will lose 1x Boeing 737-300 and gain 2x new Boeing 737-800's instead.

I understand they will be quite a few schedules chaneing sometime over the next week which will see extra flights been added including a late morning/lunchtime services to Malaga, Alicante and Palma on peak days. Also Crete will go from 2x weekly to 3x weekly and extra 4th weekly flight been added to Mahon.
There will also be a new route announced as well.
