Jet2 took to social media to warn all UK customers about what appears to be a series of scams, one of which relates to Covid testing. Some destinations still require travellers from the UK to take PCR or lateral flow tests ahead of and/or after arrival.
These usually have to be paid for separately, with a number of providers offering testing kits. However, Jet2 has said it does not "arrange PCR tests or Fit to Fly documents" and urged passengers: "please do not respond to requests for this".
Other warnings related to bank account details, telephone numbers and social media purchases, as seen in the Liverpool Echo. In a tweet on Monday (August 22), the holiday operator said: "IMPORTANT REMINDER. Only contact us using the methods shown on the Contact Us pages on the Jet2 and Jet2holidays websites.
