Looking after you before you go

We’re constantly reviewing a range of official guidelines to make sure we have the right measures in place for your safety. We’ve been working closely with the UK and overseas governments to understand each country’s specific requirements, as well as the Department for Transport and Public Health authorities. The European Aviation Safety Agency’s guidance has also helped us shape our measures.

Yes, right now everyone entering the UK has to fill out an online declaration form called the Public Health Passenger Locator Form.

You can’t complete the form until 48 hours before your arrival time in the UK, so you’ll need to fill this in while you’re away. When you arrive back in the UK, you’ll have to show your completed form at the border, either by printing a copy or showing it on your phone.

Each passenger in your party needs to complete a form, except for children under 18 years old whose details can be added to the form of an adult they’re travelling with. You can find out more information and fill out the form here.

No, you don’t have to wear gloves when travelling with us. The latest official guidelines advise that the best way to protect your hands is to limit what you touch and wash them regularly. However, please check the government website for the latest advice before you take off.

Yes, everyone needs to wear a face mask at all times while travelling, apart from children under six years old and people that can’t wear a mask for medical reasons. Be prepared to put your mask on before you enter the airport and keep it on while you’re there, onboard the plane, at the overseas airport and as you travel to your accommodation.

You might also need to wear your mask at your accommodation and around your resort, so please check the local guidance when you arrive. Face masks need to cover your mouth and nose and should be either a protective or medical-style mask, or a fitted face covering. Coverings such as scarves, snoods, balaclavas or any similar items aren’t acceptable for travel.

It’s a good idea to stock up on masks before you travel as it’s recommended you change them every four hours. Plus, you’ll need to wear a mask for your whole return journey too.

If you have a medical condition that means you can’t wear a mask, then you don’t have to. If you need further information about this, please check the government website for the most up to date advice.

If you bought a Jet2insurance policy after 9 April 2020 or you add a new policy to a new or existing booking, you’re covered if you need to cancel your holiday because you’re ill with COVID-19 or if you become ill with COVID-19 abroad. If you bought insurance with us before 9 April 2020, please check your policy for further details. To book Jet2insurance for your upcoming trip, search here now.

Don’t worry, if you’re in a local lockdown, self-isolating or have COVID-19 symptoms, we’ll help you amend your booking. Please check here for the latest information.

It depends what country you’re travelling to, so please check out the latest information here.

As these documents are issued by official authorities from other countries, it’s best to check the website where you’re filling in the form if you need any help. Try looking for an FAQ section or contact details. Our team will be happy to help as much as we can, but we may not have the specific information you need.

Yes, you can still use our free Twilight Check-in service at Newcastle, Leeds Bradford, Manchester, East Midlands, Birmingham and London Stansted airports. However, it’s not currently available at Edinburgh, Glasgow or Belfast airports.

To use the service, all you have to do is check in online at least 24 hours before your flight and then you can drop your bags off at the airport the night before you take off. That way you can skip check-in and head straight to security the next day.
