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 6th MOST PUNCTUAL SHORT-HAUL AIRLINE
The latest CAA data has placed Blue Islands as the 6th most punctual short-haul airline from a total of 31 carriers, for flights departing the UK in 2022.
Rob Veron, CEO Blue Islands said, “Placing 6th out of 31 short-haul airlines is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our teams and our supplier partners; especially in a year where our industry continued to work through many post-pandemic challenges."
Blue Islands operated 8,687 scheduled flights in 2022.
Rob added, “Providing our customers with a safe and reliable on-time service is a complex task. The importance of this is greater where we play a vital role in keeping our island communities connected – we’re proud that the local airlines in Guernsey and Jersey are punching above their weight compared to the CAA’s UK peer group.”
