Nothing Beats a Jet2 Holiday
The upbeat Jet2 ad line turned 2025 TikTok meme — cheerful holiday narration over chaos, disasters, and travel fails.
A brand audio meme: the wholesome Jet2 holiday slogan becomes ironic soundtrack for travel nightmares, airport meltdowns, and absurd holiday clips. Spread on TikTok through late 2024–2025; the airline's decision to lean in kept the trend culturally sticky.
History
Jet2's 'Nothing Beats a Jet2holiday' campaign (Jess Glynne's 'Hold My Hand,' narration by Zoë Lister) aired as a feel-good UK travel ad. On TikTok, users flipped the cheerful 'Nothing beats a Jet2 holiday' line against chaotic vacation footage — and Jet2 eventually joined the joke (Know Your Meme).
