British airline Jet2 plans to completely phase out its Boeing 757 fleet by January 2025.
On November 3, 2024, the 32-year-old aircraft with the registration G-LSAC completed its last commercial flight from Fuerteventura to Manchester before being transferred to St. Athan for storage. Jet2 currently operates several Boeing 757 models, some of which are already over 30 years old. The oldest aircraft, G-LSAI, is even 37 years old and is scheduled to make the fleet's last flight in early January 2025.
Jet2 is renewing its fleet as part of a long-term modernisation strategy, replacing Boeing 757s with Airbus A321neo aircraft, which burn less fuel and produce lower emissions. This move follows the industry trend of replacing older models in favour of greener and more efficient aircraft.
The Boeing 757 fleet has been a central part of the airline for decades, enabling Jet2 to operate reliable flights to destinations across Europe, including popular holiday destinations such as Spain, Greece and the Canary Islands. The final phase of 757 flights includes routes such as Manchester-Alicante, Manchester-Geneva and Manchester-Tenerife, which are scheduled to continue until January 2025.
