1. Making a Booking

1.1
You must be aged 18 years or over to make a booking with us.

1.2
The person making the booking is classed as the “lead name” in any booking which includes more than one person.  Where you are the lead name you guarantee to us that you have the authority to accept (and do accept) these Terms and Conditions (and our Regulations and Policies) for each person named in your booking and that you have drawn these Terms and Conditions to their attention. You will be the primary contact with us and will accept any communications/correspondence from us (or our suppliers) on behalf of your entire party. 

1.3
Please make sure your contact details are correct as we or our authorised agent will use them to contact you (e.g. to inform you of any changes, amendments or cancellations to your booking).

1.4
All flight bookings are made with us, Jet2.com Limited.  All bookings for other products or services (e.g. car hire, insurance, accommodation) are made with the relevant third party supplier of those services and not with Jet2.com as we act only as their agent. Of course, those suppliers will have their own terms and conditions which govern the supply to you of their products/services (in addition to our own terms and conditions).  Please ensure that you have read the terms and conditions of the relevant suppliers (available by clicking the following hyperlinks: Jet2Hotels.com, Hertz Car Hire, Acumus Insurance Ltd) before you complete your booking (as well as these Terms and Conditions).

1.5
All products on www.jet2.com are not an offer by us, but represent an invitation for you to make an offer to us or our suppliers. You make this offer when you click “Complete Booking” during the booking process. We are able to accept or reject any such offers on our own behalf where we are acting as principal, or on behalf of our suppliers where we are acting as their disclosed agent.

1.6
After you have made your booking we will send you an e-mail confirming acceptance and it is at this time that a binding contract comes into existence between you and us. Please check your confirmation e-mail very carefully. If there are any discrepancies or it is not what you think you booked, please contact our call centre immediately and no later than within 24 hours of booking.

1.7
There is also an option of receiving a text alert with summary confirmation details which can be used to check-in for your flight for an additional charge. This option can be selected during the initial booking process and the message will be sent to the mobile number entered at the time of making your booking. This charge is non-refundable. As outlined in section 1.6 please check your confirmation very carefully and contact our call centre immediately if there are any discrepancies. This text alert is only valid for your initial booking and all subsequent changes made to your booking will be notified by email. Jet2.com accepts no responsibility for non-receipt of texts, incomplete texts, change of telephone number or other loss or damage as a result of force majeure or your own negligent act or omission.

2. Tickets

We are a ticketless airline. When you have made your booking you will be issued with a confirmation email and also a summary text alert if you have requested one in accordance with Section 1.7 above, both of which detail your confirmation number and itinerary. You need to quote this number at check-in in order to travel. This is valid for the flight(s) booked or as subsequently amended. We do not accept liability for any misuse of your confirmation number.


<< back to the top

3. Prices

3.1
All prices shown are subject to change without notice.  Fares do not include transfers to and from your departure airport. Most online discounts and promotional fares are not available for bookings made through our call centre.  Base fare(s), taxes and charges are payable in any currency in which they are published.

3.2
Please note that sessions on our reservation system will “time out” after 20 minutes if you do not proceed to confirm your booking.

3.3
Until you have confirmed your booking and submitted your credit card details, the seats you have selected have not been taken out of the Jet2.com seat inventory. If those seats are no longer available at the time you select “Confirm Booking”, a message will be displayed telling you this and you will have to re-select a new fare for those seats, subject to availability.  If you have used our “shopping basket” facility and the seats you originally selected are no longer available by the time you proceed to confirm your booking, you will automatically be offered seats at the next available price, subject to availability.


<< back to the top

4. Taxes and Charges

4.1
Any taxes or charges imposed by a governmental or other authority, including the operator of an airport, which we are obliged to collect from you or to pay in respect of you and your flight/carriage will be payable by you to us in addition to the base fare.

4.2
When you book, the total amount of such taxes and charges not included in the base fare and payable by you will be clearly shown.

4.3
Taxes and charges imposed on air travel are constantly changing and can be imposed after the date that your booking is confirmed. If any such tax or charge is introduced or increased after you book you are obliged to pay it before departure and failure to pay this may affect your ability to fly with us.


<< back to the top

5. Payment

You must pay for your booking in full when a confirmed booking is made. If valid payment in full is not made when the booking is confirmed, we may at any time prior to check-in cancel your booking.


<< back to the top

6. Travel Documents

6.1
Please make sure that the name on your confirmation email matches exactly your name on your passport (if it is an international flight) or on your other permitted identification document (if it is a UK domestic flight). 

6.2
Remember, when you are the lead name, you will need to check the exact names for the other members of your booked party.

6.3
You are responsible for making sure you have all relevant visas, entry and exit, health and/or other documents that may be required and, if requested by us, you must present all such documents to us and permit us to make copies thereof. We are not liable if you do not possess the travel and other documents needed for your journey or have not obeyed all relevant requirements concerning entry into a country. 

6.4
These requirements may change from time to time and you should make sure you have up to date information.  So, if in doubt, you should check with the relevant country’s Embassy, consulate or other relevant body both before booking and again before travelling.

6.5
If you are refused entry to a country, whether because of lack of required documents or otherwise and, as a result, we are required by any governmental or immigration authority to transport you out of such country and/or pay any fine, penalty, other charge, or expense, you must reimburse us in full and pay us for such transport at the applicable fare. Please note if this happens, we will not reimburse the amount you have paid for any flights you have used, or tried to use, or are unable to use, as a result of your failure to meet applicable requirements.

6.6
You shall submit to any security checks or requirements by governmental, airport personnel, police or military officials, or by us. We reserve the right to refuse carriage to anyone (or the person's baggage alone) who has not complied with, or whose documents do not appear to comply with, such requirements.


<< back to the top

7. Advance Passenger Information

In many countries, advance passenger information is required to be transmitted to their governmental authorities in respect of passengers.  You will meet any request received from us for personal information we need to meet such requirements and shall ensure that all such information, and all other information about you supplied to us at any time, is accurate and correct and remains so.  Failure by you to meet advance passenger information obligations may result in denied carriage.


<< back to the top

8. Insurance

We strongly recommend you take out personal travel insurance at the time of booking.  Among other things, this can cover you where you are unable to use your booking, or where the actual value or replacement cost of your checked baggage or unchecked baggage exceeds our liability.


<< back to the top

9. Children

9.1 Infants
The minimum age of an infant we can carry is 14 days after birth but this is subject to our discretion, dependent on the specific circumstances. Infants aged 2 years or under at the date of departure of each sector may travel seated on the lap of an adult responsible for that infant on payment of an administration charge only. Infants over 2 years pay the full adult fare.

9.2 Unaccompanied children
We accept unaccompanied children aged 14 or over at the date of departure provided the booking is made by a person aged 18 or over. 


<< back to the top

10. Expectant Mums

We are not able to carry expectant mothers who are 34 or more weeks pregnant at the date of departure of their flight.  Expectant mothers who are between 28 and 34 weeks pregnant need to provide us with a doctor’s certificate confirming their stage of pregnancy and that they are fit to fly.


<< back to the top

11. Fitness to Fly

11.1
It is your responsibility to ensure you are medically fit to travel and fly.  Please remember that this covers your whole journey, both the duration of the flight and also the period you may be in transit through the departure and arrival airports and any unforeseen delays or diversions. If you have any doubt as to your fitness to fly you must seek medical advice and follow any advice provided regarding the use of medication for your journey.  We reserve the right to request a fitness to fly certificate.

11.2
If you fall ill during your flight and the crew have genuine and urgent concerns about your wellbeing, we may need to divert the aircraft to land at the nearest airfield in order that you can leave the aircraft to receive medical treatment. 

11.3
If we believe this is necessary you will not refuse to leave the aircraft upon being requested to do so by the captain and, if you became ill aboard the aircraft because of a pre-existing condition (regardless of whether or not you were aware of it) or due to your pregnancy, you will pay to us the cost of expenses paid by us in treating you aboard an aircraft, transporting you on the ground, and paying for treatment provided by a third party on the ground.  You shall also reimburse any extra costs we incur that are associated with any medical diversion in circumstances where you were aware, or should have reasonably been aware, that you were not, or may not have been, fit to fly.  We may apply towards payment due to us from you the value of any unused carriage you have paid for, in which event such carriage shall be cancelled.


<< back to the top

12. Special Assistance

If you require special assistance for you or a member of your party (e.g. use of a wheelchair) you must tell us before you book so that we can make sure appropriate arrangements can be made before you commit to the booking. We will do our very best to provide the required assistance, but some services may be limited. 


<< back to the top

13. Carriage of Animals

We are pleased to carry registered guide dogs free of charge on all UK domestic flights when accompanying a guided passenger.  Unfortunately we do not offer this on international flights where national rules do not permit it. You agree that you assume full responsibility for any guide dog and accept that we are not liable for injury to or loss, delay, sickness or death of any guide dog unless caused by our negligence.


<< back to the top

14. Additional Services

14.1 Jet2plus
We are delighted to offer Jet2plus for customers aged 12 and over.  The Jet2plus service is available on selected routes only on payment of the relevant fee. For more details of this fabulous service please visit our Questions section. Services within Jet2plus may vary from time to time and are subject to additional conditions.  Occasionally some services may not be available due to circumstances outside our control. Please note that we only permit able-bodied adults aged 16 or over to sit in emergency exit seats.

14.2 Seat Selection
For a small extra charge you may select your preferred seats online.  Unfortunately this facility is not currently available online for those customers travelling with an infant or with mobility or medical issues.  Seats for these customers are pre-reserved by us and assigned at check-in.  Note that emergency exit seats are only suitable for able-bodied adults (16 years or over). Seat selection charges may be refunded where there has been a change of aircraft or for reasons of force majeure subject to payment of an administration fee notified at the time. From time to time for operational, safety or security reasons we may need to assign or re-assign seats, even after boarding the aircraft.  Therefore we can not always guarantee your seat selection. Should you change the date of your flight booking the seat selection charges are non-refundable and the seats are non-transferable to your new flight date.

14.3 Hot Meals
The content of hot meals may vary and, in addition to availability, can not be always guaranteed.  Please note that if you select a hot meal as part of your booking, the price paid is non-refundable but can be transferred to a later flight if you provide at least 96 hours notice of the change to your booking.


<< back to the top

15. Scheduled Departure Times

15.1
We do not wish to inconvenience passengers unless this is unavoidable but unfortunately sometimes changes to scheduled flight times may be required for operational reasons outside our control.  For that reason times shown are not guaranteed and may be varied.

15.2
Please make sure you re-check your flight itinerary with us between 72 and 24 hours before you travel to make sure you have not missed any changes. We (or our authorised agent) will always try to notify you of any changes where we have sufficient time before departure and will use your contact details provided.


<< back to the top

16. Check-in and Boarding

16.1
You must present yourself for check-in for your flights no later than the minimum check-in time shown on your itinerary or at least 2 hours before your departure time, whichever is the earlier. These check-in times vary by airport so please do check your itinerary carefully. You must allow sufficient time after check-in to proceed through security, customs and immigration prior to your flight.

16.2
If you have pre-selected your seats online, have a valid EU passport and your party does not include any infants or anyone requiring mobility assistance, you may also check-in online.  This can be done between 28 days and 5 hours before your scheduled departure date and time.  For some routes this can be done up to 4 hours before the scheduled departure time.

16.3
We may suspend online check-in from time to time. If this is the case you will need to check-in as explained above.

16.4
Check-in closes 40 minutes prior to the scheduled departure time of the relevant flight.  Failure to check-in on time will result in your reservation being cancelled and you will not be eligible for any refund.

16.5
Once you have proceeded through security and immigration you must ensure that you present yourself for boarding at the correct gate no later than the minimum time specified by us when you check-in. If you do not make yourself available at the correct boarding gate at least 20 minutes prior to the scheduled departure time your reservation will be cancelled.

16.6
If you do not appear to possess the correct travel documentation or do not meet all relevant requirements of these terms and conditions, you will not be allowed to travel.  It is very important to note that any failure by you to submit or present information required in relation to advanced passenger information regulations will result in your not being allowed to travel.

17. Baggage Charges and Allowances

17.1 Unchecked baggage (i.e. hand/cabin baggage)
You may carry on board one piece of unchecked cabin baggage free of charge which must be no more than 10kg in weight and no larger than 50cmx38cmx26cm.

17.2 Checked-in Baggage
If you wish to check-in baggage for carriage in the hold of the aircraft, we levy a charge for this which will be notified at the time of booking and which may vary depending on the length of the flight and when and how you purchase your booking.  Upon payment of the relevant per bag charge you have a baggage allowance as detailed in our Frequently Asked Questions.  This allowance can be carried in up to 3 separate pieces of baggage but note you must pay the individual bag charge for each bag carried. Please note that infants travelling on a responsible adults’ lap do not have any baggage allowance.

If you need to carry more baggage than your allowance permits then you will have to pay (in addition) an excess baggage charge for each extra kg (or part) carried above your allowance which will be advised at the time of payment at the departure airport.

Golf clubs and skis may be pre-booked on line, through the call centre or at the airport sales desks subject to payment of the relevant extra charge.  For all other “outsize” items you must advise our call centre in advance of travel and separate charges may apply. Outsize items are items such as pushchairs, travel cots, child car seats, musical instruments, wheelchairs and sporting equipment.

We can carry sporting equipment up to a maximum individual weight of 32 kgs.  Apart from these exceptions we can not carry any single bag that exceeds 25 kg in weight.

The carriage of excess baggage above your permitted allowance and outsize items is strictly subject to availability of space on the relevant aircraft (as well as applicable safety, health, security and operational constraints) and therefore can not always be guaranteed for carriage on the same aircraft as you.  If such items can not be carried on the same flight as you are travelling we will carry them on the next available/suitable flight.

All current baggage charges are either notified at time of booking online or are available through our call centre.

All baggage must be properly packed in suitcases or other suitable containers in order to ensure that it is sufficiently robust and well secured to withstand the usual and normal rigours of carriage by air (except for fair wear and tear).

18.7

<< back to the top

19. Right to Refuse Baggage

19.1 We may refuse carriage of any item that is prohibited from carriage as baggage and may refuse further carriage of any such items on discovery thereof. We may refuse to carry as baggage any item because of its size, shape, weight or character. We may refuse to accept baggage for carriage if, at check-in, it appears not to be properly packed in suitcases or other suitable containers to ensure safe carriage with ordinary care in handling.


<< back to the top

20. Right to Search

20.1
For reasons of safety, health and security, and to check that you are not carrying in your baggage any prohibited items, we and/or airport security personnel may search, screen and x-ray your baggage with or without your presence. If you not comply with such requirement we may refuse to carry you or your baggage and this is without refund or other liability to you. We will not be liable for any damage resulting from such activity unless it was caused solely by our negligence.

20.2
Please note that the security authorities of some countries require that checked-in baggage is secured in such a manner that it can be opened without the possibility of causing damage in the absence of the passenger.  It is your responsibility to make yourself aware of and comply with any such requirements.

20.3
You agree that if required, you must attend the inspection of your baggage, checked-in or unchecked, by customs or other Government officials. We are not liable to you for any loss or damage suffered by you through your failure to comply with this requirement unless it is due to our negligence.


<< back to the top

21. Collection and Delivery of Checked-in Baggage

21.1
You shall collect your baggage as soon as it is available for collection at each place of destination or stopover. If it is not claimed within a reasonable time, we may charge a storage fee and, if not collected within 100 days of the time it was made available for collection, we may dispose of it and retain for our benefit any proceeds without notice or any liability to you.

21.2
If the person claiming the baggage is unable, on request, to produce a baggage identification tag for identification of the baggage, we will make the baggage available to such person only on condition that he or she establishes to our satisfaction his or her right thereto, and if required by us, such person shall furnish adequate security to indemnify us for any loss, damage or expense which may be incurred by us as a of result such delivery.  We accept no responsibility for making anything other than limited enquiries of the person claiming the baggage when assessing the right to collection.

21.3
Acceptance of baggage by the bearer of the baggage identification tag without complaint at the time of delivery is prima facie evidence that the baggage has been delivered in good condition and in accordance with the contract of carriage, unless you prove otherwise.


<< back to the top

22. Removed Items of Baggage

We accept no responsibility for any items of your baggage that are removed by airport security personnel acting in accordance with international regulations.  If you are aware of the removal of items from your baggage by airport security personnel, it is your responsibility to ensure that you obtain a receipt from the airport security personnel and make arrangements for collection of such items later.

We do not allow any requests to change your point of departure or destination.  If you wish to change these then you will incur a 100% cancellation charge.

25.3
We do allow name changes made through our call centre or authorised agents, or made in person at the passenger sales desk at the airport provided these are made at least 4 hours prior to the scheduled departure time shown on your itinerary and that the requested change is for the whole itinerary for the relevant passenger (a “Name Change”).  You will need to provide the full name, address and contact e mail and number for the new passenger(s) and we will send them a confirmation e mail and itinerary.

25.4

<< back to the top

26. Cancellation, rerouting, delays

26.1
The time of flight departures and the duration of flights are not guaranteed. For operational, commercial, safety or security reasons or because of unusual or unforeseen and/or extraordinary circumstances which could not reasonably have been avoided by us (including without limitation bad weather, air traffic control restrictions, unexpected flight safety shortcomings, potential health hazards) we may cancel, terminate, divert, re-route, postpone or delay any flight or cease operations on any route.

26.2
If we decide to cancel, terminate, divert, re-route, postpone or delay your flight, or cease operations on the route your flight forms part of, after your itinerary/receipt has been issued and this is known to us more than 48 hours in advance we will try to notify you of such change using the email address you advised at the time of booking. You must therefore check your email inbox and notify us if you change your email address. If we receive an email failure notice or no email address has been provided, we will send notification to the advised postal address. The  lead name is responsible for notifying any changes to all passengers on the flight booking.

26.3
Except as provided for by law, the price paid for the booked flight(s) is non-refundable including any taxes, fees or charges which may have been collected in respect of such flights.


<< back to the top

27. Aircraft

We do not guarantee your flight will be operated by any aircraft specified in our timetable and reserve the right to substitute aircraft as may be necessary from time to time.  Sometimes, we may need to change the aircraft type or use another airline’s aircraft and in these circumstances we can not guarantee that you will always receive the same level of in-flight service and baggage allowances as Jet2.com provides.


<< back to the top

28. Cancellation by you

28.1
If you decide to cancel your whole booking or to cancel an individual passenger in your party, we do not provide any refund. 

28.2
We recommend all the passengers travelling have appropriate personal travel insurance. If you need a statement of non-travel from us for insurance purposes we charge an administration fee for this.

28.3
To avoid losing your money altogether, we recommend you consider changing the name on your booking to someone else who can travel in your place and/or to consider changing the dates of travel in accordance with Clauses 25.4 and 25.5. For more information on how to make a change please read our FAQs.

30. Our Liability

30.1 We will not be liable for any claim arising from our compliance with applicable local law or government rules and regulations, or from your failure to comply with the same, except as may be provided by the Convention for the Unification of Carriage of Certain Rules for International Carriage by Air, signed in Montreal, 1999 (the "Montreal Convention") .

Your contract of carriage with us (including these Terms and Conditions and all applicable exclusions and limits of liability) applies for the benefit of our authorised agents, servants, employees and representatives to the same extent as they apply to us.  As a result, the total amount recoverable from us and our authorised agents, servants, employees and representatives will not be more than our own liability, if any.

We will have no liability to you regarding any product or services you book through us, as agent for the supplier thereof, unless caused solely by our negligence.

Nothing in these Terms and Conditions gives up or waives any exclusion or limitation of our liability available under the Montreal Convention or applicable local law unless otherwise expressly stated in writing by us; or prevents us from excluding or limiting our liability under the Montreal Convention or under any other laws which apply, or gives up any defence available to us thereunder against any public social security body or any person liable to pay, or who has paid, compensation for the death, wounding or other bodily injury of a passenger.

30.2 Death/Personal Injury
Our liability for compensatory damages you are entitled to recover for proven losses and costs sustained by you in the event of death, wounding or other bodily injury caused by an accident is subject to rules and limitations set out in the Montreal Convention, EC Regulation 2027/97, and these Terms and Conditions.

30.3 Loss of or damage to Baggage
Our liability for compensatory damages you are entitled to recover for proven losses and costs in the event of loss of, or damage to, or delay of, your checked-in baggage, and unchecked baggage/personal property carried by you aboard the aircraft, is subject to rules and limitations set out in the Montreal Convention, EC Regulation 2027/97, and these Terms and Conditions, generally as follows.

30.4 Delay
Our liability for a claim caused by delay in your carriage by air is limited by the Montreal Convention.  Where that Convention does not apply, we will have no liability to you for delay, except as otherwise provided in these Terms and Conditions or by applicable law.

30.5 US Required Liability Notice
Wherever liability for your journey does not rest with us and the Montreal Convention does not apply and the carrier has not waived the Warsaw Convention limits for death or bodily injury and the defence that it has taken all necessary measures to avoid the damage up to the national currency equivalent of 100,000 Special Drawing Rights of any such claim, the Warsaw Convention and special contracts of carriage embodied in applicable tariffs provide that the liability of such carriers for death of or personal injury to passengers is limited in most cases to proven damages not to exceed: (i) US$75,000 per passenger in the case of journeys to, from, or with an agreed stopping place in the USA, and that this liability up to such limit shall not depend on negligence on the part of the carrier; and (ii) US$10,000 or US$20,000 in the case of journeys not to, from, or with an agreed stopping place in the USA.

The names of carriers party to such special contracts are available at all ticket offices of such carriers and may be examined on request. Additional protection can usually be obtained by purchasing insurance from a private company. Such insurance is not affected by any limitation of the carrier's liability under the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention or such special contracts of carriage. For further information, please consult your airline or insurance company representatives.

Note: The above US$75,000 limits of liability is inclusive of legal fees/costs except that in case of a claim brought in a state where a provision is made for separate award of legal fees/costs, the limit shall be US$58,000 exclusive of legal fees/costs.

You must notify us immediately in writing of any damage to your baggage and, in any event, no later than the expiry of 7 days of receipt of that baggage or, if lost, the date on which it should have been received. 

Your notification must include an itemised list identifying each affected item and giving a description including the manufacturer and age of item together with proof of purchase and evidence of ownership in each case.  We will deduct an amount from your claim in respect of depreciation where we believe it to be appropriate.  In the case of a compensation claim for physical damage to baggage, you must retain the damaged baggage and produce it to us at our request in order that we may examine it to assess the nature and extent of the damage and whether the baggage is capable of repair. In the event that you wish to claim for the cost of replacing an individual item which forms part of a claim for damage to baggage, you must consult us before incurring the replacement cost, otherwise it may not be included in the compensation payable to you. You must include proof of purchase of the replacement items when making your claim. In respect of all claims for damages concerning your baggage, you must provide us with all the information we request to assess the eligibility of your claim and the amount of damages payable. If we require you to do so, you must sign a statement of truth regarding the facts and value of your claim for damage to your baggage before we make the payment to you. If you fail to comply with these requirements, you may adversely affect the amount of compensation to which you are entitled.

31.2 Delay to Checked Baggage
You must notify us in writing of any delay to your checked baggage within 21 days of the date on which the baggage was placed at your disposal.

31.3
If you fail to notify us within these timescales then no action shall lie against us.

31.4 Time Limits to bring a Claim
Your right to make any claim against us shall be extinguished if you do not bring an action within two years from the date of arrival at the destination, or from the date on which the aircraft ought to have arrived, or from the date on which the carriage stopped.
