The first Jet2 leisure flight took off in February 2003 from Leeds Bradford airport, and since then the regional airline has experienced steady growth to emerge as a serious player in the British low-cost airline sector. The carrier operates from eight airports across the north of the UK. A 39-strong fleet of distinctive red-tailed jets flies to more than 50 destinations on 189 routes across Europe.
