Jet2 has issued a message to all holidaymakers who plan to travel with the airline this summer, as well as Jet2holidays customers. The operator is advising customers to check the “latest travel information” section on Jet2’s websites “at least 12 hours” before their flight to get the most current details.
Jet2 has issued a 12-hour warning to anyone with flights booked on the airline this summer.
Britain’s third-largest airline has dished out some sage advice to flyers, strongly recommending them to check the “latest travel information” on Jet2’s website at least 12 hours before flying to make sure they get any last-minute updates.
The company advises travellers: “Please check this section of the website at least 12 hours before your flight for the latest flight information. Further information can be found by using the [above] search panel by entering your flight number or route. We recommend arriving at the airport at least 2 hours before your scheduled departure time.
“Please remember – check-in desks close 40 minutes before this. In the event of flight disruption our dedicated Operations teams are working hard behind the scenes at our UK-based HQ to get you on your way as soon as possible.”

Jet2 jets off from an array of airports spanning the UK, including but not limited to Liverpool John Lennon Airport, Manchester Airport, and Glasgow Airport, going to over 75 exciting spots around Europe and even farther.
Jet2 passengers can check-in for their flight starting 28 days before and ending 5 hours before the scheduled departure time – though this depends on the departure destination. Jet2 passengers that have not yet checked in online can opt in for seat selection and also receive a printed boarding pass at a ticket counter. Those that opt for online check in can download a mobile boarding pass to their device.
Jet2 is also one of a few airlines that offers Twilight Check In, which enables passengers flying at midday to drop off their bags the evening before their flight. However, this service is only available between certain hours and at certain airports.
Jet2 passengers with flights departing before midday can drop off their bags at Birmingham, Bristol, East Midlands, Edinburgh, Glasgow International, London Stansted, Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester or Newcastle Airports.
Even more conveniently, if you are travelling as part of a group not all passengers need to go to the airport for the twilight bag drop-off. Every one passenger is able to check bags for up to six people. Jet2’s Twilight Check-in service is free of charge and open between 16:30 and 21:00 the evening before your morning flight.
