It's official: Jet2 is your favourite short-haul airline. Almost 30,000 readers voted in the 2023 Telegraph Travel Awards, with the Yorkshire-based airline trouncing the likes of British Airways (which finished 12th), EasyJet (10th) and Ryanair (22nd).
In recent years, Jet2.Com has established itself as one of the leading United Kingdom-based airlines. In 2022, the airline company carried 15.4 million passengers. This was the third year in the company's history when passenger numbers exceeded 10 million.
There are notable exceptions, though. Among the top airlines in the UK, for example, only Virgin Atlantic skips row 13; British Airways, easyJet, and Jet2.com do not. For the United States, United Airlines (on most aircraft types) and Alaska Airlines (only on the 737-800) do this.
