In recent weeks, global events have prompted understandable questions from travellers regarding the availability of jet fuel and the potential impact on upcoming flights.

Will airlines run out of jet fuel?

Addressing the primary concern of many holidaymakers, easyJet confirms that the airline has not and is not seeing any disruption to its jet fuel supply. While the global aviation sector is navigating a complex period, the airline & package holiday provider's daily operations remain entirely unaffected by external supply chain shocks.

Will easyJet & easyJet holidays be cancelling flights?

easyJet's flying program remains fully intact. The airline plans to operate its full schedule of flights across its entire network. Passengers booked on upcoming flights, or on package holidays, should proceed to the airport with confidence, as the airline is not making cancellations related to fuel availability.

What is being done to ensure this stability is maintained?

easyJet continues to engage closely with suppliers and the Government to monitor the situation. This proactive approach allows the airline to stay ahead of any potential market shifts. At present, easyJet has visibility for a rolling four-week period and does not foresee any issues currently.

How does the cost of oil affect my flight ticket or package holiday price?

With discussions surrounding the rising cost of oil dominating the news, passengers are naturally curious about how this translates to ticket prices.

First and foremost, easyJet & easyJet holidays do not have fuel surcharges. The airline & package holiday provider are committed to pricing transparency, meaning customers will not suddenly face unexpected fees added to their bookings to cover fluctuating commodity costs.

When it comes to ticket pricing, easyJet always aims to offer competitive fares. It is important to note that prices are dependent on a number of factors, not just fuel. Fares are dynamic and respond to passenger demand, seasonality, airport fees, and route popularity (read How easyJet’s pricing works for more information).

How do I ensure I get the best price for my flight or package holiday?

For travellers looking to secure the most cost-effective travel, the airline's advice remains consistent: easyJet recommends customers book early for the best fares. By securing flights well in advance, passengers can lock in the best value for their upcoming holidays and travel with complete peace of mind.

This advice extends to package holidays, but with easyJet holidays' additional Best Price Guarantee safeguard to ensure competitive value is always met.
