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.”

BLUE ISLANDS EXPLORING INTEREST IN ISLE OF MAN SERVICE
Blue Islands’ latest engagement with the local business communities is to assess demand for a direct service to the Isle of Man from Jersey.
Travel to the Isle of Man currently requires multiple flights, connecting over UK airports such as Birmingham. This survey will help the airline evaluate the current demand and viability of a direct service.
Tom Barrasin, Chief Commercial Officer, Blue Islands said, “There are many businesses that operate across Jersey and the Isle of Man. The survey is designed primarily to better understand the corporate travel requirements, by gathering data regarding current behaviours and propensity to travel, to determine if a viable, sustainable route could be re-established.”
Tom added, “Blue Islands continually evaluates opportunities for new route development to better connect the Channel Islands, such as our direct services to Rennes, Dublin and Norwich established this year. Engagement with our corporate and business travellers is a vital component of our meeting the island’s connectivity requirements.”
The survey will be open until 18 November 2022.
