Important message regarding travel to/from Jersey
Updated Thursday 2nd April 2020 13:19*Important message regarding travel to/from Jersey*
The Government of Jersey has imposed restrictions upon those who can travel to and from the Island. Until further notice, only passengers in the following categories should be seeking to book and board flights with us:
- Essential government workers or contractors travelling to/from Jersey for the purposes of their work.
- Essential private or voluntary sector workers for the purposes of their work.
Further guidance on the definitions of essential workers can be found here: https://www.gov.je/Health/Coronavirus/Pages/CoronavirusTravelAdvice.aspx
- Those travelling to/from the UK for non-emergency medical treatment
- Those travelling to reach a permanent home in Jersey or the UK, or travel on urgent compassionate grounds
- Non-British nationals travelling to reach a permanent home outside the UK
Passengers who do not fall into the above categories should not attempt to book or travel, and will be risking refusal of authorisation to travel by the Jersey Customs and Immigration Service (JCIS) should they proceed to do so.
Any passengers displaying symptoms related to COVID-19 should not attempt to book or board flights until they have completed the mandatory self-isolation requirements of their local authority. See latest COVID-19 advice.
JCIS are also empowered to prevent from travelling any passengers who are displaying relevant symptoms by enacting physical controls at Jersey Airport.
Covid-19 - revised schedule update
Updated Tuesday 24th March 2020 15:43UPDATE: 20/03/2020 - 19.05
Covid-19 update - revised schedule
As the Covid-19 situation continues to evolve, both the States of Guernsey and Government of Jersey have now stipulated that all arriving travellers must self-isolate for 14 days.
Unsurprisingly this means there is little or no demand for scheduled services, as such Blue Islands has further revised its Jersey operations, any affected passengers will be automatically moved and notified of that change.
All scheduled flights to and from Guernsey will cease from today and resume at a future date to be confirmed. Blue Islands is standing by to resume services when deemed appropriate, continued updates here and via our social media channels.
Rob Veron, CEO Blue Islands says: “We are a locally-owned and operated airline, with our heart in the Channel Islands, our Blue Islands team has worked incredibly hard over the last few weeks to manage the collapse of Flybe and to assist travellers in a time of great uncertainty and change. We would like to thank all of our customers for their continued support and understanding.
“We stand by the States of Guernsey and Government of Jersey’s policies to control the spread of Covid-19, the health of our islands is the responsibility of the whole community.”
