We consider the Fejér (or first arithmetic) means of double Fourier series of functions belonging to one of the Hardy spaces $H^{(1,0)}(𝕋^2)$, $H^{(0,1)}(𝕋^2)$, or $H^{(1,1)}(𝕋^2)$. We prove that the maximal Fejér operator is bounded from $H^{(1,0)}(𝕋^2)$ or $H^{(0,1)}(𝕋^2)$ into weak-$L^1(𝕋^2)$, and also bounded from $H^{(1,1)}(𝕋^2)$ into $L^1(𝕋^2)$. These results extend those by Jessen, Marcinkiewicz, and Zygmund, which involve the function spaces $L^{1} log^{+} L(𝕋^2)$, $L^1(log^{+}L)^2(𝕋^2)$, and $L^μ(𝕋^2)$ with 0 < μ < 1, respectively. We establish analogous results for the maximal conjugate Fejér operators. On closing, we formulate two conjectures.
