Jet2 introduces free flights for under-twos from Leeds Bradford Airport
Leisure airline Jet2.com has announced that children under two will now travel for free.
Jet2 said the new policy applies to all new bookings made from today and children must be under two at the time of travel for it to apply.
A spokesman said: “With children under two already going free when they travel with Jet2holidays, this now means that all under two’s travel free with Jet2, whether on a package holiday with Jet2holidays or on a seat-only flight with Jet2.com.
“In addition, Jet2.com has introduced a new family-friendly change to its child and infant equipment allowance, meaning that no excess baggage will be charged for child or infant equipment being checked into the hold. This policy is effective immediately.”
“Alongside an extra 10kg baggage allowance for children under two, customers can bring up to two items per child under two free of charge to be checked into the hold. These can include a collapsible pushchair, pram or buggy, car seat or booster seat, baby carrier, or travel cot and the 10kg weight limitation no longer applies to these items.”
Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays said: “As a family friendly airline and tour operator, we are always looking at how we can make the experience even better for families travelling with us. By putting our customers first and making these changes, meaning that all children under two now travel for free whether on a package holiday or a seat-only flight, we are making travel even more accessible for millions of families.”
