Thomson first B787 Dreamliner had been brought out of the hanger in USA wearing a white scheme but a week later is has been fully painted into the new Dreamliner livery. i think this aircraft will look beautiful when it takes to the skies of the UK in the summer 

 
Jet 2 are to get 8 new aircraft for the summer of 2013. The list below shows the registrations they will have on them and their old owners

G-GDFM = B737-36N (Ex Brussels Airlines OO-VEN)
G-GDFN = B737-33V-W (Ex Air Baltic YL-BBK)
G-GDFO = B737-3UV (Ex Thomson Airways G-THOP)
G-GDFP = B737-8Z9 (Ex Austrian Airlines OE-LNJ)
G-GDFR = B737-8Z9 (Ex Austrian Airlines OE-LNQ)
G-GDFS = B737-36M (Ex bmi baby G-TOYJ)
G-GDFT = B737-36Q (Ex bmi baby G-TOYM)
G-GDFV = B737-85F (Ex Air Algeria/Travel Service EC-LKO)


so that means 5x B737-300 and 3 B737-800 

they are also leasing in 3 aircraft for the summer 
1x B757-200 off titan
1x A320 off hamburg airways
1x B737-800wl of skyservices

so by the summer they should have 53 aircraft in their fleet
