Budget travel giant Jet2 upped its profit guidance for the third time in a year, as its boss said customers are cherishing their time away from “our rainy island”.
Profits are set to fall between £510 million and £520 million for the year to 31 March, up from the previous £480m-£520m range. Jet2 said a big reason for the change was that a larger portion of passengers on its flights had booked package deals, which typically means a higher margin for the business, this winter.
