Flights and holidays operator boosts LJLA summer 2025 programme by 28%
Budget airline and holidays group, Jet2.com and Jet2holidays, are increasing their capacity at Liverpool John Lennon Airport (LJLA) by 28% in the coming year.
It follows a year of progress at the airport since the Leeds-based group began operations there a year ago today (March 28).
They will operate to 23 destinations in summer 25 from LJLA.
This is an expanded programme which includes three brand-new destinations – Malaga, Malta and Reus – to meet the continued demand from customers and independent travel agents across the North West and North Wales.
This demand means that Jet2 will increase capacity at LJLA by 28% this summer compared with last summer.
An additional Boeing 737-800 aircraft will come into operation, meaning a fleet of five-based aircraft at the airport for summer 25.
Paul Winfield, director of aviation for LJLA, said: “The decision by Jet2.com and Jet2holidays to start operations from Liverpool has been a significant boost for us with hundreds of thousands of passengers choosing to travel with them on flights via Liverpool over the past 12 months, traveling to 23 destinations across seven countries.
“We expect this year to be even busier and look forward to welcoming more Jet2.com and Jet2holidays customers.”
Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays, said: “Our first year of operations at Liverpool John Lennon Airport has surpassed all expectations, with the reaction from customers and independent travel agents being nothing short of phenomenal.
“Our award-winning customer service has had an enormous impact on customers, and the response has enabled us to put more seats and destinations on sale, giving local holidaymakers even more choice.”
He added: “It was fantastic to celebrate our first anniversary this morning and we are looking ahead with enormous confidence at Liverpool John Lennon Airport.”
