LONDON, July 28 (Reuters) - Budget airline Jet2.com said it
was cancelling flights and holidays from Britain to Tenerife,
Gran Canaria, Fuerteventura, Lanzarote, Majorca, Menorca and
Ibiza until at least Aug. 10, reflecting the latest travel
advice from the British government.
Jet2.com, owned by Dart Group, had already cancelled
flights to mainland Spain up to and including Aug. 16 after the
government said passengers arriving into Britain from Spanish
destinations would need to quarantine for 14 days.
"What we need now is clarity and consistency from the
government," the airline said in a statement. "We understand
that this is a fast-moving situation, however the information we
are receiving is contradictory and often comes with little or no
notice."
The airline said it would contact customers currently in
these destinations to advise them of their options regarding
flying back to the UK.
