Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays said: “We are pleased that the UK Government has followed the science and put a number of popular destinations onto the Green List, although by looking at the data we firmly believe that more destinations should have been added.

"This is a missed opportunity, and we once again ask the Government to share the parameters with us so that we can understand their decision-making when it comes to international travel.

“We knew there was a lot of pent up demand out there but the response from our customers has been truly incredible.

"Bookings to Majorca, Menorca, Ibiza, Malta and Madeira have gone through the roof, which shows just how much UK holidaymakers want to get away.

"We have already added more flights in response to that demand, and we are geared up and ready to restart flights and holidays on 1st July.”
