MEDIA STATEMENT: 14 NOVEMBER 2025
Blue Islands, the Jersey-based airline, has suspended operations with immediate effect and is considering its options.
All Blue Islands flights have been cancelled. Passengers expecting to fly should not go to the airport unless they have made alternative travel arrangements with another airline. For those with Blue Islands reservations:
- For bookings made directly with Blue Islands, please contact your bank or provider of the payment card used to make the booking;
- For bookings made through our codeshare partner Aurigny but travelling on a Blue Islands flight, please contact Aurigny directly – some flights may still be operating;
- For bookings made through a travel agent or holiday company, please contact the company through whom you booked for advice and guidance.
“After 26 years of serving the Channel Islands, we deeply regret that Blue Islands has this evening suspended its operations,” said a spokesperson. “After very constructive dialogue with Government of Jersey in recent months, including what we understood to have been ongoing assessments of the future options, we were informed this afternoon that they are unable to provide further support. This has meant that we now need to suspend flying immediately whilst we consider the options available and how we can help our customers, staff and stakeholders.”

Pudsey Bear arrives in Guernsey for Children in Need appeal
There was excitement at Guernsey airport yesterday as a famous face arrived in the Channel Islands. Not your average celebrity, this was Pudsey Bear who flew in with Blue Islands to raise awareness for the 2015 Children in Need appeal in Guernsey, before flying to Jersey for tonight's party at Fort Regent.
BBC Radio Guernsey and Jersey host an online auction each year with companies and organisations across the Channel Islands donating amazing items for Islanders to bid on. Rob Veron, Blue Islands' Managing Director said
With projects across the Channel Islands benefiting from Children in Need grants, as a local airline, Blue Islands is proud to regularly support the fantastic appeal. This year we are donating over 20 return flights for the BBC's auction.
Children in Need has a united vision across the nation that every child has a childhood which is; safe, happy and secure and allows them the chance to reach their potential. Last year's campaign alone raised £49.1m to help make a difference to over 480,000 children. Since 1980 it has raised over a staggering £790 million to change the lives of disabled children and young people. This year's main event takes place this evening, for more information or to donate, visit bbc.co.uk/pudsey.
