Jet2holidays has announced that it is expanding its market leading Free Resort Flight Check-in® service to the Canary Islands this summer, just weeks after announcing the welcome return of the exclusive service in Cyprus.

After receiving positive feedback and sky-high demand following the news that the service would return in well over 50 hotels initially in Cyprus, the UK’s largest tour operator is launching its Free Resort Flight Check-in® service in Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote and Fuerteventura in time for this summer. The service will return in over 130 hotels across these four destinations this summer, further delighting customers and independent travel agents.

Free Resort Flight Check-in® is a free and exclusive service from Jet2holidays that makes going home a whole lot easier. Customers who choose a hotel offering the service, will be able to check-in their bags at the hotel in the morning on their day of departure, leaving them to enjoy the last day of their holiday bag-free.

After dropping their bags off securely with Jet2holidays’ specialist Free Resort Flight Check-in® Team at their hotel, the bags are then safely transported to the airport by the team and stowed onto the aircraft.

This gives customers time to enjoy themselves at the hotel on the final day of their holiday without having to carry suitcases around. It also means customers are bag-free at the airport and can simply go straight through to security.

Jet2holidays first launched its Free Resort Flight Check-in® service in 2016, and the service enjoyed sky-high popularity with phenomenal levels of take up and satisfaction from customers. The service temporarily stopped operating because of the pandemic, before the tour operator announced last month that the service would return in Cyprus from the end of April. After receiving positive feedback from customers and independent travel agents for relaunching the service, the company will now expand the service to the Canary Islands.

Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays, said: “Since announcing the return of our Free Resort Flight Check-in® service in well over 50 hotels initially in Cyprus, we have received phenomenal feedback from both customers and independent travel agents who have really welcomed the return of the service.

He added: “On the back of that, we are delighted to announce that we will be expanding the service to over 130 hotels in the Canary Islands, offering even more customers the opportunity to take advantage of the many benefits of using the free service once again. This smart, secure service makes an enormous difference to the overall holiday experience, as by being luggage-free on the last day of their holiday, customers can enjoy their valuable holiday time, and breeze through the airport before their flight home. As the UK’s largest tour operator, we are always looking at ways to improve the customer journey, and the expansion of our Free Resort Flight Check-in® is just another example of how we continue to invest to ensure we deliver the best customer service in the industry.”
