Jet2.com and Jet2holidays chairman Philip Meeson expects the airline and operator’s winter capacity to be half that of last year owing to the ongoing effects of the coronavirus crisis.
The business on Thursday (19 November) disclosed a pre-tax loss of £119.3 million for the six months to 30 September, down from a £337 million profit during the same period last year.
Operational profit, meanwhile, fell from £365.1 million to a £111.2 million loss during what Jet2 described as a period of "unprecedented operational and financial challenges" during which it was forced to ground much of its fleet from mid-March through to mid-July.
