The boss of growing airline Jet2.com says he is confident the holiday market will keep growing as cost-conscious consumers continue to prioritise their vacation time despite the cost of living crisis.
The company this week announced it was opening a new base at Liverpool John Lennon Airport - its 11th in the UK - in response to strong demand from passengers and travel agents. The first flights will start in March 2024 and the airline will initially fly to 20 summer destinations.
Jet2 chief executive Steve Heapy met BusinessLive at the airport - and said he believes his airline and holiday arm Jet2holidays will see continued growth across their networks.
