Jet2holidays closes gap on Tui as it increases Atol licence

The Atol licence of Jet2holidays has been increased from 3.8 million to 4.60 million.

The licence was increased through a variation notice because of better than expected sales.

The increase of 865,000 seats in the current climate was staggering, but the operator had not canceled a single flight and had just won a number of new awards.

The move by theCAA showed how much faith it had in Jet2holidays.

At a time when the government is focused on financial stability and the operational capability of companies, this shows how confident the CAA is in our ongoing operations.

The new licence puts it nearly half a million seats behind the leader.

Jet2 Holidays has a licence to carry almost half a million passengers, which leaves it almost half a million behind.
