Jet2 parent Dart Group has said the boost in demand following the collapse of Thomas Cook will likely ensure it delivers full-year profits in excess of current market expectations.

Jet2 has seen a rise in the proportion of package holiday passengers this summer

Dart Group on Friday (11 October) said its leisure travel business – comprising airline Jet2.com and tour operator Jet2holidays – was experiencing “encouraging levels” pf later season bookings.


Reiterating its comments dating to its early-September AGM, Dart Group said “overall demand” for both its flight-only and package holiday offerings – post-Cook – continued to strengthen.
