Jet2 issues travel warning for British holidaymakers flying to Italy this month

Jet2 has issued a warning to holidaymakers heading to a stunning Italian city at the end of this month.

In a message to customers, the international carrier announced that operational changes will affect flights to Naples Airport between October 27 and November 3.

The airline warned flights going Naples, the regional capital of Campagnia in the south of the country, would be operating from an alternate airport some 50 miles away on these dates.

Jet2 said in a statement: “Due to operational issues beyond our control at Naples Airport, between October 27 and November 3, 2024 inclusive, all our Naples flights will be operated to and from Salerno Costa d’Amalfi Airport.”

But despite the airport change, holidaymakers won’t have to change their tickets to fly, the company says.

The firm’s statement continued: “Just so you know, our booking and pre-departure systems, including Manage My Booking and any boarding passes, will still show flights at Naples Airport. Your flight number will stay the same.”

Jet2 operates flights to the city from a number of UK airports, including Birmingham Airport, Manchester, Leeds, Glasgow and Edinburgh, as per Birminham Live.

The airline recently announced new flight routes to popular locations, with its Disscover More collection expanded to tourist hotspots in Krakow and Marrakech due to customer demand. 

Trips to Marrakech include a tour of the vibrant city, and trips to the historic city of Krakow.

Steve Heapy, CEO of Jet2.com and Jet2holidays, said: “We are expanding our Discover More collection in response to demand from customers, and we know that these new packages to the city break destinations of Marrakech and Krakow will be very popular.

“With more customers looking to experience it all on their holidays, whether that is adventure, culture, history or sightseeing, we have responded to this and expanded our Discover More collection.

“From speaking with customers and independent travel agents we know that there is a growing appetite to learn more about these historically vital locations, and they add a lot to our growing Discover More collection.”
