Danish airline Jettime to operate BA flights
The danish airline Jettime (JTG) will be operating 2 B737-700 aircrafts on a wet-lease for BA at LHR this summer. According to Danish travel news media Check-in (http://www.check-in.dk/jet-time-skal-flyve-for-ba) they will mainly operate domestic UK flights. According to a source at Jettime they will also operate some flights between LHR and CPH in order to rotate the aircrafts through CPH where Jettimes main base is located.
The B737 aircrafts that will operate for BA have gone through a re-configuration removing some seats in order to increase the seat pitch from the normal charter configuration.
Jettime is mostly a charter airline based on the former Maersk Air and operating B737 aircrafts. But they also operates some ATR-fligths on behalf of SAS and cargo flights.

interesting.
though wet-lease, will it be a BA service offering (drinks, meals, etc)?
BA uniforms? or does that not happen in wet-lease scenarios?

If seat-pitch.com is to be believed, 29 inches

Looking up Southwest's B737-700, there's only 24 rows @31" pitch whereas JetTime appears to fit in 25 (for five extra seats):

When Jettime operates on behalf of SAS it is standard SAS offering including SAS Plus (Economy Extra) with meals and drinks. So I think it will be normal BA service offering.

If the aircraft is rotated using other services it could cause problems with B2Bs if the outbound LHR-CPH is delayed, as the inbound CPH-LHR being operated by another aircraft would presumably depart on time.
