Jet2 launches first VIP business class aircraft from Liverpool John Lennon Airport

Jet2 has launched its first dedicated business class aircraft, based at Liverpool John Lennon Airport, offering a premium charter experience for sports teams, music artists, entertainment groups and specialist travellers.

The new Boeing 737-800NG has already welcomed its first charter customers and is available for further bookings throughout the winter season, marking a significant milestone for the airline’s established charter operation.

Jet2 launches first VIP business class aircraft from Liverpool John Lennon Airport

For the first time, Jet2 has introduced a business class cabin configuration, replacing the aircraft’s usual 189-seat layout with just 76 premium seats.

Passengers benefit from a minimum of 43 inches of legroom throughout the cabin, providing considerably more personal space, enhanced comfort and an exclusive onboard environment.

Jet2 introduces premium charter experience

The new Jet2 business class aircraft has been developed in response to growing demand from charter customers seeking greater privacy, flexibility and comfort when travelling.

The airline is targeting sports teams, musicians, entertainment professionals and specialist groups requiring a more personalised flying experience.

Alongside the spacious seating configuration, passengers can enjoy upgraded onboard catering tailored to their individual requirements, delivered by Jet2.com’s award-winning cabin crew.

The dedicated business class layout also provides an exclusive environment, allowing groups to travel together with greater privacy and convenience.

According to Jet2, early customer feedback has been exceptional, with passengers praising the aircraft’s premium atmosphere, generous legroom and overall comfort.

Liverpool John Lennon Airport becomes base for new aircraft

The decision to base the new Jet2 business class aircraft at Liverpool John Lennon Airport represents another development for the airline’s operations in the city.

The aircraft will support Jet2’s established charter business, providing a premium option for customers requiring dedicated aircraft services throughout the winter.

Charter customers will also benefit from the experience of Jet2’s specialist charter team, supported by Jet2.com’s dedicated 24-hour operational team.

As the UK’s third-largest airline, Jet2 says the new premium offering combines its established reliability and customer service with a more luxurious flying experience.

Jet2 welcomes successful business class launch

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.”

How to book Jet2’s business class charter aircraft

The newly configured Boeing 737-800NG is available for charter bookings throughout the winter season, with customers able to arrange tailored services depending on their travel requirements.

Groups interested in booking the aircraft can contact the Jet2 Charter team directly at jet2charters@jet2.com for further information.

The introduction of the premium aircraft marks a new chapter for Jet2’s charter operation, while placing Liverpool John Lennon Airport at the centre of its first dedicated business class offering.
