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.”

Air Cadets 75th anniversary torch relay
Yesterday (24 August 2016) a ceremonial torch celebrating the 75th anniversary of the RAF air cadets air training corps arrived in Jersey airport as part of a six-week relay throughout the British Isles.
The relay is one of many events to mark the 75th anniversary of the RAF Air Cadets and will see the torch travel from John O'Groats to Land's End, taking in over 300 locations including the Channel Islands. After sunrise at Stonehenge, Wing Commander Vanessa Toth carried the torch to Jersey Airport with the help of Flybe franchise partner Blue Islands, where it was met by local members of the 7 Overseas (Jersey) Squadron, members of Victoria College Combined Cadet Force and visiting Air Cadets from Nailsea, near Bristol.
Flight Lieutenant Leighton Jenkins RAF VR(T) said:
Courtesy of Blue Islands the torch landed in Jersey and was passed to Tara McCarthy of the 7 Overseas (Jersey) Squadron. The Cadets then embarked on an exciting range of activities including visiting the Minquiers, the most southerly point in the British Isles!
Rob Veron, Blue Islands' Managing Director said:
We are delighted Blue Islands could play a small part in this historic torch relay for an organisation that provides amazing experiences for young people and promotes aviation.
The Air Training Corps is a national uniformed youth organisation with over 40,000 members for boys and girls between the ages of 12 and 20. With a strong aviation theme, young people take part in activities that encourage the spirit of adventure and develop qualities of leadership and good citizenship.
