Of the 10 B752 left in the fleet, only 5 can make the distance (winglet).
All other airports can handle the A330,

AB, AC, AE, AK and AN comprise the Jet2 ETOPS 757 fleet. All have winglets but I don't know if there are any other significant differences between these aircraft and their other 757s.

Allowed to fly? They dont have a set max range. If the aircraft consumes less fuel over a set distance then it has more range.
As has been said it will be due to etops requirements rather than winglets although suspect all the 757 are maintained to etops standards otherwise parts stockholding becomes a nightmare. The winglets will give a bit more leeway especially going westbound at this time of year.

The winglets make the aircraft more efficient, which reduces the fuel flow per hour at the same airspeed and therefore increases its range. What they don't do is increase the allowable still air time/distance from a suitable airport (the ETOPS rule under which the aircraft is operating), which may be what you're thinking of.

Not the same as the 757?

For non etops flights, the plane needs to fly not further than the distance flown in 60mins at the one engine inop cruising speed in still air, which are:
B737-800 Non Winglet = 395nm
B737-800 Winglet = 400nm
B757-200 = 400nm
So having winglets on the 737 does (just!) make a difference whereas on the 757 it doesn’t.

Please if you don’t mind?

According to Jethro's yesterday, Jet2 have acquired a further two 2nd hand B737-800's.
G-DRTY & G-DRTZ (Ex Okay Airways B-5575 & B-5577, but formerly Ryanair EI-DAT & EI-DAX). Both around 16 years old.
The fleet continues to expand.
