ARTICLE 4: FARES, TAXES, FEES AND CHARGES
4.1 General
Fares apply only for carriage from the airport at the point of origin to the
airport at the point of destination. Fares do not include ground transport service
to/from your departure and destination airports. Prices shown on our websites
and in our advertising are subject to change without prior notice and are only
guaranteed when your contract is confirmed and payment has been taken. In circumstances where a booking does not complete because the seats at the particular fare you wanted have been sold to someone else before your transaction completed, our appointed payment provider will automatically issue a refund to your payment card for the full transaction cost within minutes. On-line discounts and promotional fares are not available through our Call Centre and Sales Desks. Charges for excess and outsize items are subject to payment at the prevailing rate on the date of travel. Golf clubs and skis/snowboards can generally be pre-booked and paid for in advance on-line at a discounted rate. We reserve the right to levy a reasonable adminstration charge for any service offered which is not directly related to your carriage and to which you are advised of and agree to in advance.
4.2 Taxes, fees and charges
Any taxes, fees and charges imposed by government or other authority, or by the operator of an airport and in effect on the date of travel, whether imposed directly on the passenger or payable by us on the passenger's behalf or in respect of the passenger's carriage, shall be payable by the passenger and are included in all published fare costs. The taxes, fees and charges imposed on air travel are constantly changing and can be imposed after the date of issue of your itinerary/receipt. If there is any subsequent increase in a tax, fee or charge, you will be obliged to pay it. Likewise, if a new tax, fee or charge is imposed even after the date of issue or your itinerary/receipt, you will be obliged to pay it prior to departure. We reserve the right to require payment of the additional tax or charge applicable to your booking and to recover these by using the payment card advised at the time of making the flight booking. We will make reasonable efforts to contact you in advance to advise you of the payment due and approximate timescale for the deduction.
Conversely, if there is any reduction in tax, fee or charges levied and effective before the date of travel, we shall, on written request, refund you the full amount of that reduction in tax, fee or charges.
4.3 Exceptional circumstances surcharges
In exceptional circumstances, charges may be imposed on us by third parties which are of a type or amount not normally applicable to our operations (for example, but not limited to, insurance premium supplements or additional security costs triggered by terrorism). Where such charges relate to carriage of passengers, we shall be entitled to require you to pay, as fare surcharges, all such charges attributable by us to your carriage (even if imposed after the date of issue of yourTicket). We reserve the right to require payment of the additional surcharge applicable to your booking and to recover these by debiting the payment card advised at the time of making the flight booking. We will make reasonable efforts to contact you in advance to advise you of the payment due and approximate timescale for the deduction. Where the total of all surcharges payable exceeds £25 per person (or the equivalent amount in the currency used to purchase the ticket), you may choose not to pay and receive an involuntary refund in accordance with the provisions of Article 9.2.
4.4 Currency
Fares, taxes, fees and charges are payable in the currency in which the fare is paid, unless another currency is indicated by us at the time payment is made. When payment is made in a currency other than the currency in which the fare is published, such payment will be made at the prevailing rate of exchange from time to time. We have no responsibility for your bank charges or any currency conversion charges which your bank may charge you. We have no responsibility for the consequences of any delays on the part of your bank crediting refunds to your account.

6.2 Fitness to travel and fly
Prior to boarding the aircraft for carriage you must be reasonably satisfied that you are medically fit to travel and fly. No medical examination is necessary unless you have any reason to suspect, or ought reasonably to know, that you have a condition which might be exacerbated by the normal operation of an aircraft or could cause you difficulty if you are unable to gain access before the end of your flight to professional medical assistance. As diversions and delays may be unavoidable for safety reasons, you must be fit enough so that your health will not be jeopardised by the normal inconveniences associated with modern day air travel. If you have any doubt whatsoever you are obliged to seek professional medical advice before flying with us. Whenever you are aware of a health condition of the type just mentioned, but have been advised that you are fit to travel and fly provided certain precautions are taken (for example, use of medication), it is your responsibility to ensure that all such precautions are in fact taken before, during and after your flight, as the case may be and that you are able, if requested to do so, to produce written evidence of your fitness to fly.
If you fall ill during your flight and the crew have genuine and urgent concerns about your wellbeing, we may need to divert the aircraft to land at the nearest airfield. If we believe this is necessary, you will be liable for the extra costs we incur that are associated with that medical diversion. Some insurance policies, including the policy sold through our website, will provide cover for you in these circumstances so you should check your policy carefully before booking.
6.3 Special Assistance
Acceptance for carriage of unaccompanied children under the age of 14 years,
incapacitated persons, pregnant women, persons with illness or other people
requiring special assistance (such as a wheelchair) is subject to prior arrangement
with us. Children under the age of 14 can only travel if accompanied by a person
aged 16 years or over who will take full responsibility for them. If you have
a disability and you have advised us of it and notified to us any special requirements
prior to check-in and we have then agreed to satisfy those special requirements
we shall not subsequently refuse you carriage on the basis of your disability
or any agreed special requirements unless you fail to comply with these conditions
of carriage including, but not limited to, Articles 6.1 and 6.2.
6.4 Refusal to carry or removal of passenger
If due to a passenger’s behaviour, conduct, mental or physical condition, we or another carrier pursuant to Article 3.7 has in the exercise of its reasonable discretion pursuant to Articles 6.1 or 10, refused to carry a passenger, or removed such a passenger en route by diverting the aircraft, the passenger will not be entitled to further carriage or to a refund either in respect of the sector or the subject of the refusal of carriage or removal. We will not be liable for any consequential loss or damage alleged due to any such refusal to carry or remove en route.
If we need to divert the aircraft as a result of your behaviour, conduct, mental or physical condition, you will be liable for the extra costs we incur that are associated with that diversion.
The passenger(s) concerned shall indemnify us in full against any losses arising from the refusal of carriage or removal. We may apply towards such payment or expenditure the value of any carriage unused by that passenger, or any funds in our possession.
ARTICLE 7: BAGGAGE
7.1 Baggage allowance
At all times limits may be restricted by Government or airport authorities, most usually for security reasons. Any such restrictions will supersede our normal baggage allowance.
You may carry onboard 1 piece of Cabin Baggage (Max 10kg & no larger than 50cm x 38cm x 26cm), free of charge, subject to our conditions and limitations, which are available upon request from us or our Authorised Agents.
All items of Checked Baggage are subject to a fee, the level of which depends on whether you have pre booked the baggage or whether you book the baggage at the airport or via the call centre. Specific fees are available from us or our Authorised Agents.
The Checked Baggage fee pays for the carriage of a specified weight of checked baggage. That weight varies depending on when you booked your baggage allowance and your departure date. For bookings made up to and including 19th October 2008 (and departing before 31st March 2009) the Checked baggage fee permits carriage of up to 17kgs in weight. For bookings made after this date and for all passengers departing on or after 31st March 2009 the fee permits carriage of up to 22 kgs in weight. In each case this may include up to 5 separate items per person which total together no more than the applicable allowance.
Any
Checked Baggage in excess of the applicable weight limit will be charged at Excess Baggage rates prevailing on the date of travel. Each individual bag may not weigh more than 25kg. Separate charges will apply for carriage of all outsize and sporting goods. All charge rates are available on our website, on display at our Airport Sales Desks or from us upon request.
7.2 Excess baggage
You will be required to pay an extra charge for carriage of baggage in excess of the normal baggage allowance. The rates are available from us upon request and are chargeable at the prevailing rate on the date of travel. Please note that we are not obliged to carry any baggage in excess of the applicable allowance of hold baggage as outlined above in Section 7.1 and 10kg cabin baggage and any such excess baggage will be carried subject to space available. Outsize baggage, including pushchairs, travel cots, child car seats, musical instruments, wheelchairs and sporting equipment may be carried on a "Limited Release" basis i.e. entirely at your own risk for loss, damage or delay. No single item of baggage may weigh more than 25kg except some outsize items which may weigh up to 32kgs and mobility aids which may weigh up to 60kgs. These items must be prebooked via our call centre.
7.3 Items unacceptable as baggage
7.3.1 You must not include in your baggage:
7.3.1.1 Items which are likely to endanger the aircraft or persons or property on board the aircraft, such as those specified in the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) Technical Instructions for the Safe Transport of Dangerous Goods by Air and the International Air Transport Association (IATA) Dangerous Goods Regulations, and in our regulations (further information is available from us on request);
7.3.1.2 Items the carriage of which is prohibited by the applicable laws, regulations or orders of any state to be flown from, to or over;

7.3.3 We may, at our discretion accept as checked baggage, workmen’s tools and weapons such as antique firearms, swords, knives, toy or replica guns and similar items on a “limited release” basis, but they will not be permitted in the cabin of the aircraft.
7.3.4 You must not include in checked baggage fragile or perishable items, valuable items (including, but not limited to, money, jewellery, precious metals, computers, electronic devices, cameras, bottled alcohol, cigarettes, high value new cosmetics and perfumes and other highly desirable items) any medication or medical equipment which may be required in-flight or during your trip or which cannot be swiftly replaced if lost or damaged, house or car keys, valuable documents (including, but not limited to, business documents, passports and other identification documents, negotiable papers, securities) or samples. If an item of unchecked baggage is required, for any reason, to become checked baggage, you must remove all items of the type just mentioned beforehand.
7.3.5 If, despite being prohibited, any items referred to in Articles 7.3.1 to 7.3.4 are included in your baggage, we shall not be responsible for any loss or damage to such items.
7.4 Right to refuse carriage of baggage
7.4.1 Subject to Articles 7.3.2 and 7.3.3, we will refuse to carry as baggage the items described in Article 7.3, and we may refuse further carriage of any such items on discovery.

7.5 Right of search
7.5.1 For reasons of safety and security we request that you permit a search, x-ray or other type of scan be made of your person and baggage. If you are not available, your baggage may be searched in your absence for the purpose of determining whether you are in possession of or whether your baggage contains any item described in Article 7.3.1 or any firearms, ammunition or weapons, which have not been presented to us in accordance with Articles 7.3.2 or 7.3.3. If you are unwilling to comply with such request we may refuse to carry you and your baggage. In the event an x-ray or other scan causes damage to you or your baggage, we shall not be liable for such damage unless due to our fault or negligence.
7.5.2 The security authorities of some countries require checked baggage to be secured in such a manner that it can be opened in the passenger's absence without the possibility of causing damage. It is your responsibility to make yourself aware of and comply with any such requirements.
7.6 Checked baggage
7.6.1 On delivery to us of your baggage which you wish to check or of your baggage which we require you to check prior to boarding we will take custody of, and issue a baggage identification tag for, each piece of such baggage.
7.6.2 Checked baggage must have your name or other personal identification affixed to it.
7.6.3 Checked baggage will, whenever possible, be carried on the same aircraft as you, unless we decide for safety, security or operational reasons, or because of unusual or unforeseen circumstance beyond our control, to carry it on an alternative flight. If your checked baggage is carried on a subsequent flight we will try to notify you of when it is available for collection if you have provided us with a contact number or e-mail address.
7.6.4 You must ensure that your checked baggage and your unchecked baggage is sufficiently robust and sufficiently secure to withstand the normal rigours of carriage by air without sustaining damage, save for normal wear and tear, and that your baggage is properly locked, subject to the provisions of Article 7.5.2 of which it is your responsibility to make yourself aware of and comply with any such requirements.
7.6.5 Jet2.com is strictly a 'point-to-point' airline. We therefore do not offer, and cannot facilitate, the transfer of passengers or their baggage to other flights, whether operated by Jet2.com or other carriers.
7.7 Unchecked baggage (Cabin baggage)
7.7.1 We specify maximum dimensions for baggage that you carry on to the aircraft (see Article 7.1). Any baggage that you carry onto the aircraft must fit under the seat in front of you or in an enclosed storage compartment in the cabin of the aircraft. If your baggage cannot be stored in this manner, or is of excessive weight, or is considered unsafe for any reason, it must be carried in the hold as checked baggage.
7.7.2 We may, when space
and security restrictions
permit, allow you to carry a 'laptop' personal computer, over and above your cabin baggage allowance. When space and security restricitions do not permit, we may require the laptop and such other items of baggage to be assessed as part of your checked baggage allowance, and carried in the hold on a limited release basis.
7.7.3 Objects not suitable for carriage as checked baggage (such as delicate musical instruments), and which do not meet the requirements in Article 7.7.1 hereto, will only be accepted for carriage in the passenger cabin if you have given us notice in advance and permission has been granted by us. You may have to pay an extra charge for this service and items will only be carried on a limited release basis.
7.8 Collection and delivery of checked baggage
7.8.1 Subject to Article 7.6.3, you are required to collect your checked baggage
as soon as it is made available at your destination. We accept no
responsibility for any baggage not collected from the appropriate arrivals baggage
console or collection point and will charge you in respect of any costs we incur
as a result of baggage, which you do not collect. Should your checked baggage
not be claimed within one(1) month of the time it is made available, we may dispose
of it without any liability to you.
7.8.2 Only the bearer of the baggage check and baggage identification tag is entitled to delivery of the checked baggage. We cannot take any responsibility for ensuring that such bearer is entitled to delivery.
7.8.3 If a person claiming checked baggage is unable to produce the baggage check and identify the baggage by means of a baggage identification tag, we will deliver the baggage to such person only on condition that he or she establishes to our satisfaction his or her right to the baggage.
7.9 Animals
7.9.1 With the exception of registered guide dogs, accompanying a passenger with seeing or hearing disabilities, which may be permitted to travel on domestic flights, subject to prior agreement, no animals will be accepted for carriage on the aircraft.
7.9.2 We accept no responsibility for any animals that we refuse to carry on the aircraft and you will be solely responsible for making all necessary arrangements in respect of the same. Furthermore, we exclude any liability in the event of your being unable to travel as a result of our refusal to carry any animal you may attempt to carry on the aircraft.
7.10 Items Removed from Passengers by Airport Security Personnel
We will not be responsible for, nor have any liability in respect of, items removed from passengers' baggage by airport security personnel acting in accordance with international or government authority, whether or not any such items are subsequently retained or destroyed by such airport security personnel, or are passed by such airport security personnel to us.
ARTICLE 8: FLIGHT TIMINGS, DELAYS, CANCELLATION OF FLIGHTS

8.1.1 We shall endeavour to carry you and your baggage with reasonable dispatch and to adhere to planned schedules in effect on the date of travel. Sometimes, for operational reasons or because of unusual or unforeseen circumstances beyond our control, we may decide to re-schedule the time of a flight. Consequently times shown in timetables cannot be guaranteed and form no part of your contract with us.

If the scheduled flight time is changed by us after your itinerary/receipt has been issued, we will use reasonable efforts to inform you of any such changes if you have provided us with an email or postal address or telephone contact number. Consequently you must notify us by contacting our Call Centre if you change your email contact address after making your flight booking. You must re-check your flight times via our on-line View Your Booking facility or on-line timetables between 24 and 72 hours before date of travel.

The contact addressee is responsible for notifying any changes to all passengers on the flight booking.
8.2.4 Except as otherwise provided by the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention or EC Regulations, if we cancel a flight, fail to operate a flight reasonably according to the schedule, fail to stop at your destination, or cease operations on the route your flight forms part of, we shall, at your option, either:
8.2.4.1 carry you and your baggage at the earliest opportunity on another of our flights on which space is available and reimburse you for the additional charge on application, and, where necessary, extend the validity of your ticket; or
8.2.4.2 within a reasonable period of time re-route you and your baggage to the destination shown on your itinerary/receipt by our own services or by other mutually agreed means and class of transportation without additional charge; or
8.2.4.3 make a refund in accordance with the provisions of Article 9.2.
8.2.5 Upon the occurrence of any of the events set out in Article 8.2.4, the options outlined in Article 8.2.4.1 through 8.2.4.3 are the sole and exclusive remedies available to you and we shall have no further liability to you, except as otherwise provided by the Warsaw Convention or the Montreal Convention or EC Regulations.

A "Community air carrier" means an air carrier with a valid operating licence granted in accordance with EU Regulation (EEC) No. 2407/92.
The text of this summary is taken from EC Regulation 889/2002. Please note that Regulation 889/2002 provides that this summary cannot be used as a basis for a claim for compensation, or as a basis to interpret the provisions of that Regulation or the Montreal Convention.
Air carrier liability for passengers and their baggage
This information notice summarises the liability rules applied by Community air carriers as required by Community legislation and the Montreal Convention.
Compensation in the case of death or injury
There are no financial limits to the liability for passenger injury or death. For damages up to 100,000SDRs (approximately 80,000GBP/ 120,000EUR/ 180,000CHF/ 3.8mCZK/ 960,000NOK / 48,0000PLN) the air carrier cannot contest claims for compensation. Above that amount, the air carrier can defend itself against a claim by proving that it was not negligent or otherwise at fault.
Advance payments
If a passenger is killed or injured, the air carrier must make an advance payment, to cover immediate economic needs, within 15 days from the identification of the person entitled to compensation. In the event of death, this advance payment shall not be less than 16,000 SDRs (approximately 12,800GBP/ 19,200EUR/ 28,800CHF/ 608,000CZK/ 153,600NOK/ 76,800PLN).
Passenger delays
In case of passenger delay, the air carrier is liable for damage unless it took all reasonable measures to avoid the damage or it was impossible to take such measures. The liability for passenger delay is limited to 4,150 SDRs (approximately 3,220GBP/ 4,800EUR/ 7,200CHF/ 153,000CZK/ 386,40NOK/ 19,320PLN).
Baggage delays
In case of baggage delay, the air carrier is liable for damage unless it took all reasonable measures to avoid the damage or it was impossible to take such measures. The liability for baggage delay is limited to 1,000 SDRs (approximately 800GBP/ 1,200EUR/ 1,800CHF/ 38,000CZK/ 9600NOK/ 4800PLN).
Destruction, loss or damage to baggage
The air carrier is liable for destruction, loss or damage to baggage up to 1,000 SDRs (approximately 800GBP/ 1,200EUR/ 1,800CHF/ 38,000CZK/ 9600NOK/ 4800PLN ). In the case of checked baggage, it is liable even if not at fault, unless the baggage was defective. In the case of unchecked baggage, the carrier is liable only if at fault.
Higher limits for baggage
A passenger can benefit from a higher liability limit by making a special declaration at the latest at check-in and by paying a supplementary fee.
Complaints on baggage
If the baggage is damaged, delayed, lost or destroyed, the passenger must write and complain to the air carrier as soon as possible. In the case of damage to checked baggage, the passenger must write and complain within seven days, and in the case of delay within 21 days, in both cases from the date on which the baggage was placed at the passenger's disposal.
Liability of contracting and actual carriers
If the air carrier actually performing the flight is not the same as the contracting air carrier, the passenger has the right to address a complaint or to make a claim for damages against either. If the name or code of an air carrier is indicated on the ticket, that air carrier is the contracting air carrier.
Time limit for action
Any action in court to claim damages must be brought within two years from the date of arrival of the aircraft, or from the date on which the aircraft ought to have arrived.
Basis for the information
The basis for the rules described above is the Montreal Convention of 28 May 1999, which is implemented in the Community by Regulation (EC) No 2027/97 (as amended by Regulation (EC) No 889/2002) and national legislation of the Member States.
