A major electrical power outage has hit mainland Spain and Portugal, causing potential disruption for travellers.
Jet2 has issued a warning to customers travelling to affected regions, as well as guidance for those who have been impacted.
The airline is closely monitoring the situation as the power outage continues to impact transportation networks.
In a statement, Jet2 said: "Check-in will close 40 minutes before your scheduled departure, so please arrive at the airport at least two hours before departure."

PAThe company has asked customers to ensure their contact details are up-to-date in the "Manage My Booking" section of their website.
This will allow Jet2 staff to contact passengers directly should the situation change or worsen.
The airline has assured customers that they are working to minimise disruption during the power outage.
The delays come after large regions of Spain, Portugal, Andorra and parts of France have been crippled by a mass power outage - with telephone and train lines inactive as authorities deal with the chaos.
Spanish power grid operator Red Electrica has stated that it is collaborating with energy companies to restore power as quickly as possible, following data indicating a near-instant, near-complete power drop-off in just a few seconds.
On social media, Red Electrica said it had invoked "power supply restoration plans in coordination with industry partners following the blackout across the peninsula".
It added: "The causes of the incident are being investigated, and all available resources are being allocated to resolve it as quickly as possible."
The Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office has issued an alert to Britons following the news.
