Jet2 says customer confidence in travel sky high
Jet2 says customer confidence in overseas holidays is high, with more than half (52%) happy about booking and travelling on holidays this summer and beyond.
The company revealed the latest results of customer profiling.
It found just over one in four (27%) say they do not feel confident in travelling overseas which is slightly down on results of two weeks ago.
It says data shows that confidence stepped up significantly in early March, and has remained strong in recent weeks.
Positive developments, such as the UK government’s ambition to reopen travel, the successful vaccine rollout in the UK, and Tourism Ministers in overseas destinations saying that they will welcome UK holidaymakers this summer have had a positive impact.
This includes positive announcements in destinations such as Spain, Cyprus, Greece, Portugal and Turkey.
Following these, Jet2.com and Jet2holidays saw immediate increases in bookings
In response, Jet2.com and Jet2holidays have increased capacity to a host of destinations for this summer including the Canary Islands, Mainland Spain, Portugal, Turkey, Greece and Cyprus.
Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays said: "Our polling shows that customers continue to look ahead with real confidence when it comes to taking their much-needed holidays. They have waited a long-time for their holidays and are understandably very keen to get away."
