It’s a really exciting time for the whole company as we take what is increasingly becoming a full leisure brand into new and interesting areas, so that we can give our customers the great experiences they have come to expectfrom our organisation.”
Flynn said: “Jet2.com was one of those brands that I had watched from its inception.
“I knew, should the opportunity arise that I really wanted to be involved with the company, so was thrilled when the HR position came up. People management, skills are core to any organisation and the focus on customer service is absolutely at the heart of everything we do here at Jet2.com.”
