Airline Jet2 Statement to All UK Holidaymakers with Flights Booked
The airline said customers will pay the booked price on all flights and holidays, despite rising jet fuel costs and wider industry speculation.
- Jet2 CEO Steve Heapy announced on Friday that the airline will not introduce surcharges on any booked flights or holidays, assuring customers that "the price they book is the price they will pay."
- Conflict between the US, Israel, and Iran has caused major disruptions to jet fuel supplies recently, pushing oil prices around 50 per cent higher and leading the Airports Council International to warn Europe faces potential "systemic" shortages if the Strait of Hormuz remains closed.
- While British Airways' parent company IAG is making pricing adjustments to reflect higher fuel costs, Brittany Ferries CEO Christophe Mathieu said the company avoids surcharges by "bringing forward our fuel" purchases to lock in rates.
- Beyond ruling out surcharges, Jet2 offers flexible payment options on Jet2holidays bookings with a low £60 per person deposit, providing passengers complete assurance that travel costs remain fixed across all booking channels.
- The DfT advises that no current changes to travel plans are necessary, though travelers facing cancellations maintain legal rights to full refunds or re-routing as the peak summer season approaches.
