Best and Worst Package Holiday Providers survey, which has seen the UK’s leading tour operator to many destinations across the Mediterranean and Canary Islands come out joint top in the survey. The survey assessed travel companies for how they looked after customers throughout the pandemic to reveal the most highly rated companies. 

Based on the opinions of thousands of customers, the survey asked Which? members about their experiences of booking and going on holiday, with different travel companies. Jet2holidays scored five out of five for ‘customer service’, ‘description matching reality’ and ‘organisation of holiday’. The results can be viewed here

Jet2CityBreaks has also received Which? Recommended Provider status. The UK’s largest operator of city breaks to Europe scored highly across all factors, in particular ‘description matching reality’, ‘customer service’ and ‘organisation of holiday’. 

These successes come just weeks after Jet2holidays was named Travel Brand of the Year 2022 at this year’s Which? Travel Awards, in recognition of the way that the companies have treated customers, both during the pandemic as well as now that international travel has reopened. 

With international travel back to normal, resulting in strong demand for flights and holidays, the leading tour operator received praise for customer service, quality, and value for money, seeing it win the prestigious title for the second time in five years. Which? also commended Jet2holidays for the way the company has looked after customers and independent travel agents during the pandemic, processing refunds swiftly and smoothly.
