Jet2 adds hundreds more flights to 2022 summer schedule to handle getaway demand

Airline and tour operator Jet2 has,massively expanded its summer 2022 schedules in response to passenger demand.

With continued uncertainty about travel this year, many holidaymakers are eyeing 2002 for their next big getaway.

All Jet2 flights and holidays are currently grounded until at least the end of March.

But the firm has revealed it has added more capacity from Leeds Bradford, Newcastle and Glasgow airports.

There will be extra services to 19 destinations in the Canaries, Balearic Islands, Portugal and Turkey from Glasgow, 15 from Leeds Bradford and 12 from Newcastle.

It is also operating more flights from its other UK bases, including a total of 175 from Birmingham, including a new service to Lisbon.

A number of city break options have also been announced.

Destinations including Amsterdam, Barcelona, Budapest, Paris, Rome, Krakow, Nice and Prague are among new city break options.

Steve Heapy, chief executive of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays, said: “We know there is a lot of pent-up demand, and since putting our summer 22 programme on sale we have been very encouraged by the number of bookings coming through from customers and independent travel agents.

“Customers clearly want their all-important holidays to look forward to, so we have responded quickly by adding thousands of additional seats to a range of brilliant hotspots from these three bases.

“We haven’t stopped there though, and we are delighted to be adding a range of fantastic city break destinations for summer 22 too.

“The response to our summer 22 programme shows how much customers want to get away with an award-winning airline and tour operator to the sunshine, and we’ll have more good news to share soon with customers and independent travel agents across the UK.”
