Got a specific question? Here, we answer all your frequently asked questions.

Can I make changes to my holiday after I’ve booked and what are the charges?

Only the lead name on the booking can make changes to the booking, subject to availability at the time of the change. Any changes are subject to an amendment fee, plus any increase in cost.

 

The amendment fee is payable per person and will be advised at the time of the change. For current amendment fees please see below. This is payable at the time of the change and is non-refundable. You can’t make any changes once you’ve checked in online. And certain changes are not allowed within 21 days of departure.

Amendment fees are payable on the day the change is made and are in addition to any increase in holiday cost. If you've already bought a travel insurance policy from us, this is non-refundable after 14 days. If you're making any changes to your travel dates and/or who's travelling, you'll need to buy a new policy.

 

Our Manage My Booking facility allows you to make simple amendments to your booking without the need to call us. You can make amendments like adding in-flight meals, selecting specific seats and making name changes, as well as check in online. You can access Manage My Booking on our website or via the Jet2 app. If you wish to change a major element of your holiday such as your hotel or change the name of a lead passenger or child, you'll need to call our Pre-Travel Services team.

What happens if I want to cancel my holiday?

Or you can check in at the airport three hours before your scheduled departure. At some UK airports we offer our handy Twilight Check-in® service, meaning you can drop your bags off at the airport the evening before your departure if you’ve checked in online and your flight’s scheduled before noon.

At the airports, our check-in desks generally open at least 2 hours 30 minutes before your scheduled departure time – see the check-in opening times at your airport. Please arrive at the airport in good time, as our check-in desks will close 40 minutes before your scheduled departure time. By this point, you must have completed the check-in process.

What are the new entry requirements for foreign nationals visiting the UK?

Details about who needs an ETA (Electronic Travel Authorisation) and how to apply can be found here.


The ETA scheme is expanding to include more countries. Information on which countries will be included and the implementation dates can be found by clicking on the link above.


If you fall into any of the following categories, you don’t need to apply for an ETA:

  • You hold a UK or Irish passport
  • You have permission to live, work or study in the UK
  • You need a visa to enter the UK (please follow the existing process to apply for your visa).

Please note that failure to present a valid ETA may result in your inability to travel to and enter the UK.
