Jet2.com and Jet2holidays paid out nearly £18 million in extra commission to travel agents last year after its profits soared to record heights off the back of increased package holiday passengers and stronger average package holiday pricing.

Jet2 carried nearly 20 million passengers during its 2024/25 financial year

Total agent commission paid out by the airline and operator during the year to 31 March 2025 increased by 11% from £166.9 million to £184.5 million, fuelled by a 5% increase in the average cost of a Jet2 package holiday to £873 and "higher independent travel agent booking volumes".

In a full-year trading update issued on Wednesday (9 July), Jet2 revealed "higher margin" package holiday customers increased by 8% year-on-year from 6.08 million to 6.58 million. Jet2’s repeat booking rate for package customers currently stands at 61%.
