Airline and tour operator Jet2 has announced a flash sale offering discounts on a variety of trips ahead of more travel rules being relaxed.
It is anticipated that fully-vaccinated passengers will soon no longer need to take Covid tests on return to the UK giving a much-needed boost to the travel industry.
In response to this increased demand, Jet2.com and Jet2holidays has launched its flash sale with huge savings on flights and holidays for Winter 21/22, Summer 22, Winter 22/23, and Summer 23.
It is offering £50 off per person on all package holidays and 10 per cent off flights on bookings made by midnight on February 7. In addition, with millions of free child places available, holidaymakers can get away for much less and book in some much-needed time together.
Meanwhile, a Jet2 poll shows half of customers surveyed say they are more likely to go book an overseas holiday as a direct result of the relaxation of travel restrictions.
In addition, a weekly tracker of customer confidence has revealed a spike following the relaxation of restrictions. More than half (56 per cent) feel confident about travelling – the highest this figure has been since October 2021 with bookings jumping by 150 per cent.
Steve Heapy, chief executive of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays, said: “January is traditionally a very important month for getting that much-needed holiday booked in, so this return in customer confidence comes at the right time.
"After so much uncertainty, the relaxation of travel restrictions has unleashed the pent-up demand from customers who just want to enjoy some time together with their loved ones, whether that is in the sunshine, on a city break or on the ski slopes.
"It is clear that the removal of unnecessary and unwelcome restrictions is exactly what customers wanted and with another travel update due next week, we look forward to more good news for holidaymakers.”
