Jet2 has released a significant update for all passengers with flights booked this summer. The British budget leisure carrier announced on May 20 news that affects anyone travelling with Jet2 throughout June, July, and August.
Fuel Supply Update
The airline has shared encouraging news about fuel supply, supporting its plans to operate its flight schedule as normal this summer. Following negotiations with fuel suppliers, production has increased and additional imports are arriving from regions unaffected by the conflict in the Middle East, according to the Liverpool Echo.
A statement on Jet2's website reads: "These positive developments mean that Jet2 is continuing to look forward to taking customers on their well-deserved holidays this summer." This update follows a report last week where Jet2 topped a UK resilience ranking as the best protected UK airline against elevated fuel costs.
Normal Operations and No Extra Charges
Jet2 has confirmed it will operate as normal throughout the summer. It was among the first UK airlines and tour operators to guarantee no additional charges on booked flights or holidays to cover rising costs like jet fuel.
The airline added: "The company has also reaffirmed its reputation as a consumer champion by pledging that customers will continue to benefit from flexibility and swift refunds in the unlikely event of any flight or holiday cancellations." During the Covid pandemic, Jet2 earned praise for refunding customers quickly and efficiently.
CEO Statement
Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2, said: "We are in regular dialogue with our fuel suppliers, and the current picture is one of increased production and imports, meaning we continue to look ahead with confidence. We have already been very clear about our plans to operate our schedule as normal this summer, and our message to holidaymakers is that summer is on."
He added: "This confidence, on top of the incredible value that our award-winning holidays offer right now, means it is a fantastic time to get that well-deserved holiday locked in."
Fuel Efficiency Recognition
This update comes days after Jet2 was recognised as one of Europe's most fuel-efficient carriers in an independent global aviation emissions study by Cirium. In the 2025 Flight Emissions Review, Jet2 ranked second in Europe for carbon efficiency, achieving 57.9 grams of CO2 per Available Seat Kilometre in 2025, a 3.1% reduction from the previous year.
