Specially configured aircraft features 76 business class seats and premium comfort on top of award-winning Jet2 service

The Jet2 Charter team has announced the successful launch of its first aircraft configured in a dedicated business class layout, helping to build on the company’s established charter business.

The specially configured Boeing 737-800NG has flown its first charter customers and is available for further charter bookings throughout the winter season.

This is the first time that Jet2 has configured an aircraft in a business class specification. Normally configured with 189 seats, the aircraft offers 76 business class seats and a minimum of 43 inches of legroom throughout. It also features enhanced levels of comfort, more personal space and the level of exclusivity that many charter customers require.

Customers also benefit from an enhanced onboard experience, such as upgraded catering that is tailored to their requirements and delivered by Jet2.com’s award-winning crew.

The premium product has been introduced in response to demand from customers including sports, music, entertainment and specialist groups who are seeking privacy, comfort, flexibility and an elevated travel experience.

The Jet2 Charter team has reported ‘exceptional’ early feedback from customers, who have praised the premium feel, comfort, generous personal space and exclusive onboard environment.

The new aircraft is based out of Liverpool John Lennon Airport and helps Jet2 build on its established Charter operation. Customers are supported by Jet2’s experienced charter team and Jet2.com’s dedicated 24/7 operational team, alongside the strength, reliability and award-winning customer service of the UK’s third-largest airline.

Trevor Caplis, Head of Charter & Airline Sales at Jet2, said: “This is the first time that we have featured a dedicated business class specification on our aircraft, so this is an incredibly exciting development for charter customers. The feedback from charter customers who have flown on it has been exceptional, with the premium feel, space and comfort onboard really shining through. This luxurious cabin environment, alongside the award-winning Jet2 customer service, looks set to be a huge hit with charter clients this winter.”
