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.”

Guernsey young people enjoy Liverpool ‘Get Away’ with #mybi Flight Fund

As recipients of flights from Blue Islands’ #mybi Flight Fund which launched in January, thirteen young people from Guernsey recently flew on Blue Islands’ service to Liverpool for the Youth Commission’s ‘Get Away’ project.

Charlie Cox, CEO Youth Commission said,

We are delighted by the continued support of Blue Islands to the Youth Commission through the #mybi Flight Fund. The kind generosity means that we can support young people from Guernsey to get off island and experience culture and education in the UK as part of the ‘Get Away’ project. Blue Islands’ support means we are able to focus our own resources to ensuring young people can take part in a range of new experiences on their visit that they may have not had otherwise.

With an action-packed schedule of activities during the four-night trip, the group experienced some of Liverpool’s culture and famous attractions including a Liverpool FC stadium tour, river cruise along the Mersey, trip to see War Horse at Liverpool’s Empire Theatre, museum experience at Tate Liverpool and the Star Wars Exhibition at Spaceport.

Rob Veron, CEO Blue Islands said,

Blue Islands established the #mybi Flight Fund for the very purpose of creating positive experiences and is proud to partner with hard-working Channel Islands charities such as the Youth Commission which make such a difference to the lives of children and young people.

Launched in January this year, the #mybi Flight Fund provides Channel Island residents, groups and charities with free flights to help achieve their off-Island ambitions, whether pursuing achievements in sport, music, art or personal development.
