Jet2.com and Jet2holidays will commit dedicated resource to launching flights and holidays from its new Liverpool base – its 11th – to agents in Liverpool, the North West and north Wales, chief executive Steve Heapy has told TTG.

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 airline and operator on Tuesday (16 May) confirmed it would base four aircraft at Liverpool John Lennon airport next summer, with flights due to get under way on 28 March 2023 – just in time for the Easter getaway.

Jet2’s first flight out of Liverpool will be to Tenerife, with the company set to offer 20 destinations in total. These include mainland Spain, the Canaries and the Balearics, as well as Greece, Turkey, Bulgaria, Portugal and Cyprus. Seven of the routes are brand new to Liverpool airport.
