The airline and operator has once again played down worries about jet fuel supply amid the conflict in the Middle East with the Strait of Hormuz, through which around 20% of the world's oil and gas supplies are shipped, still closed.
“We are in regular dialogue with our fuel suppliers, and the current picture is one of increased production and imports, meaning we continue to look ahead with confidence," said Jet2.com and Jet2holidays Chief Executive Steve Heapy.
"We have already been very clear about our plans to operate our schedule as normal this summer, and our message to holidaymakers is that summer is on."
Jet2 last month became the UK's first major operator to rule out introducing fuel surcharges on booked holidays this summer, and was quickly followed by the likes of easyJet holidays and Tui. Late last month, the airline and operator revealed it was 87% hedged on fuel for the summer.
On Wednesday (20 May), Jet2 said following dialogue with its fuel suppliers, it plans to operate its flying programme "as normal" this summer, citing increased production "and additional imports from areas unaffected by the Middle East conflict".
"This confidence," Heapy added, "means it is a fantastic time to get that well-deserved holiday locked in, and we know many people are taking advantage of that right now. Everything is geared up and ready for a busy summer and we look forward to welcoming everybody onboard."
