Can't fault Jet2 Holidays, or the other tour operators for the prompt action they have taken to get their package customers home, but that is a different issue.
I am confident all of those points will have been considered prior to making the decision they have made, which leads me to believe that the passengers booked are all on Jet2Holidays packages. I could be wrong but I don’t believe they would bar anyone from travelling on a seat only ticket unless there was Greek or U.K. Authority intervention.
