This summer, nothing beats a Jet2 holiday when it comes to viral trends
A travel advertisement for a low-cost British airline has unintentionally become the trending sound of summer 2025, with millions of social media users setting videos to the "nothing beats a Jet2 holiday" audio clip. Nothing beats a Jet2 holiday trend explained Whether a self-described chronically online person or a passive social media scroller, chances are that in the last couple of months, you've heard said catchphrase uttered over upbeat music by London pop star Jess Glynne. With millions of videos on TikTok alone posted by delayed travelers and famous actors alike, the popular voiceover from Zoë Lister saying "nothing beats a Jet2 holiday" over the hit song "Hold My Hand" has a firm grip on the internet. The catchy tune has been featured in the Leeds-based carrier and tour operator's advertisements since 2015 and serves as the boarding music over the PA system on Jet2 flights. It's also the anchor audio behind Lister's now-viral script that promotes discounts for family travel, boasting deep savings of "50 pounds off per person" and up to "200 pounds for a family of four." Last month, Glynne and Lister met up in real life for the first time at the UK's No.1 music station, Capital FM, to reenact their viral sound. Social media has collectively decided to use the viral audio to show off funny travel woes and epic fail videos, like getting dunked into the sea while parasailing or tourists getting knocked over by massive waves at a waterpark. Jeff Goldblum goes viral with Jet2 holiday trend The actor joined in on the TikTok fun with a spin on the script, swapping Jet2 for his own name and performing the voiceover timed perfectly to the song. Nothing beats a Jet 2 holiday by the numbers on Google and TikTok The audio began garnering mass attention on TikTok in April when Jet2 posted a contest for fans to lip sync the audio and a chance to win airfare vouchers. Since its rise to viral fame online, various iterations of the audio have been made, with more than 1.4 million videos posted with the original sound, according to TikTok data. And last month, according to Google Trends data, Jet2 holidays reached an all-time high interest with "nothing beats a Jet2 holiday" and "Jet2 holiday song" becoming top breakout searches in the lifestyle category for July 2025.

Princess Charlotte Is 'Quite a Strong Character' at 10—Here's What to Know About Her
THE RUNDOWN Princess Charlotte is the only daughter of Prince William and Kate Middleton, and third in line to the throne. She became the first royal girl in British history to retain her place in the line of succession after the birth of a younger brother. Now 10 years old, the young royal is known for her confidence, poise, and playful personality. She shares a close bond with her brothers, Prince George and Prince Louis, and often appears alongside her parents at public events. Here's everything to know about Charlotte. Charlotte was born on May 2, 2015, at St. Mary's Hospital in London. Kensington Palace confirmed the news, sharing, 'Her Royal Highness and her child are both doing well.' Later that day, the Prince and Princess of Wales introduced their daughter to the world from the hospital steps. Charlotte's full name is Charlotte Elizabeth Diana, honoring both Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Diana. She was named Her Royal Highness Princess Charlotte of Cambridge at birth. The name 'Charlotte' is also the feminine form of 'Charles,' a nod to her grandfather, King Charles III. Charlotte is affectionately called 'Lottie' by her family. During a 2019 visit to Windsor Park stadium in Northern Ireland, Kate met Belfast blogger Laura-Ann and her young son, George. When Laura-Ann mentioned that her older son was four, Kate responded, 'Oh, he's the same age as Lottie,' revealing Charlotte's nickname. The young princess also refers to her father as 'Papa,' as revealed in a Mother's Day card she wrote to Princess Diana: 'Dear Granny Diana, I am thinking of you on Mother's Day. I love you very much. Papa is missing you. Lots of love, Charlotte.' In November 2024, William was photographed wearing a blue beaded bracelet with the word 'Papa' on it. The bracelet, reportedly made by Charlotte, signaled their close relationship. Charlotte has been described by multiple sources and family members as confident, talkative, and self-assured. A source close to the royal household told People in May 2025, 'She is quite a strong character—almost wise beyond her years.' 'It's truly her personality—it's not forced,' childrenswear designer Amaia Arrieta added. 'She looks very confident and at ease with herself and the environment she's in. The maturity that comes with that responsibility—she seems to nail it every time.' During a conversation with a fellow mother, Samantha Burge, in March 2017, Kate was described as saying, 'Charlotte is growing up really fast. She is the one in charge,' according to Burge, who later spoke to reporters, per People. She added, '[Kate said] they are both becoming really good friends, George and Charlotte.' A source told People in January 2018 that Charlotte is 'so polite, but also fun and energetic,' adding, 'She's very sweet and very confident—she's always chatting away.' Travis Kelce shared his impression of meeting her with Taylor Swift at the 2024 Eras Tour in London, saying, 'She was a superstar.' His brother Jason added, 'She was so adorable. Like, I cannot.' Charlotte has a wide range of hobbies. She plays several sports, including soccer, rugby, and gymnastics. She has also taken dance lessons. 'My daughter Charlotte likes dancing, she loves ballet and tap,' Kate told a young fan named Emily during a 2023 appearance in Yorkshire. For Charlotte's 8th birthday in 2023, her mother took her to see Cinderella at the Royal Opera House. During an appearance on the The Good, The Bad & The Rugby podcast in 2023, Kate also revealed that 'Charlotte's playing both the sports now,' referring to rugby and football, and added that 'it's really good to see youngsters, particularly girls, playing these types of sports now.' While visiting Galway in 2020, Kate told tightrope performers: 'Charlotte is really into gymnastics, she's doing cartwheels, handstands, everything. It's so good for their basic skills of balance and coordination.' Charlotte also enjoys horseback riding and was gifted a horseshoe brooch by Queen Elizabeth II, which she wore to the monarch's funeral. Charlotte likes spending time in the kitchen, too. During a 2019 visit to Lavender Primary School, Kate told students, 'Charlotte loves olives,' and explained that her kids frequently cook with her. Matthew Kleiner-Mann, CEO of the Ivy Learning Trust, recalled Kate 'telling us how much her children love cooking and how they cook for her.' He added, 'One stirs the flour, one puts the milk and butter in, and they make salads and stuff.' Charlotte currently attends Lambrook School in Berkshire alongside her brothers. In a press release from Kensington Palace, the Prince and Princess of Wales said: 'Their Royal Highnesses are hugely grateful to Thomas's Battersea where George and Charlotte have had a happy start to their education since 2017 and 2019 respectively and are pleased to have found a school for all three of their children which shares a similar ethos and values.' Charlotte has been part of royal life from a young age. She made her royal tour debut in 2016, joining her parents and brother on a weeklong visit to Canada at just 16 months old. She has since appeared at major events including Queen Elizabeth's state funeral, King Charles III's coronation, Trooping the Colour, and more. In July 2025, she joined Prince William at the 2025 UEFA Women's Euro Final in Switzerland. After the Lionesses' win, William wrote on Instagram: 'An incredible night for @lionesses and @england in Basel. Congratulations to Sarina, the team and all the support staff. Champions! 🏆' She also returned to Wimbledon in July 2025 alongside her parents and Prince George. In May 2025, Charlotte joined George and Louis at the 80th anniversary of VE Day, seated in the front row alongside her parents.
