Jet2 has given staff an extra four days of annual leave this year for the sake of the their mental wellbeing after a summer of holiday chaos.

Thousands of Britons have had much-awaited trips abroad scuppered by mass flight delays and cancellations.

Jet2 – which has been hit by the disruption – said the extra days off could be taken at any time this year and was a show of appreciation for staff working during the ‘challenging’ period.

But the move is likely to raise eyebrows from passengers who have had their own holiday hopes dashed.

It comes after Jet2 was slammed by pilots’ union Balpa in July for allegedly refusing to recognise concerns about ‘fatigue and stress caused by roster disruption’ that could increase the risk of accidents.
