Jet2.com and Jet2holidays boss Steve Heapy has blasted the government’s Global Travel Taskforce framework, voicing his disappointment over a “lack of clarity and detail”.

Heapy spoke during day two of the Hays Travel Independence Group Conference in Tenerife on Sunday (27 March)

Heapy said Jet2 was on course to hit its 2023/24 profit targets

The operator and sister airline have suspended restarts until 24 June following the publication of the eagerly anticipated report on Friday (9 April).

Heapy said despite the taskforce having weeks to explore how to restart international travel, he believed its findings lacked “rigorous detail” and described its proposed policies as “virtually the same as six months ago”.
