Holiday airline and operator Jet2 has confirmed jobs are set to go following a review of its operations in Spain.

The Leeds based business – which is the operator of Jet2.com and Jet2Holidays – flies to and from 13 Spanish destinations, including mainland airports Barcelona, Malaga and Alicante, and to islands including Majorca, Menorca, Ibiza and Tenerife. However the company, which is believed to have around 1,000 staff in the European country, is now poised to carry out a significant restructure of its operations in Spain. It is understood the review could affect up to 35% of its staff in Spain.

A consultation is now under way with staff within a number of affected divisions.

A spokesperson confirmed: “We have recently reviewed our operations in Spain. As a result, we must sadly propose a number of colleague redundancies across Resort Flight Check-in, Flight Deck and Cabin Crew roles.

“We deeply regret these proposed redundancies, and we will be consulting with appropriate representatives of the affected colleagues to ensure that all options are fully considered.”
