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 direct flights to Rennes from Jersey
FRENCH CONNECTION BACK FOR SUMMER 2023
Islanders can once again enjoy direct flights to France this summer as Blue Islands announces its Jersey to Rennes service is back for 2023.
The airline, which launched its inaugural Rennes service last year, will operate more direct flights to France this summer with the choice of up to three departures per week between June and September.
Rob Veron, CEO Blue Islands, “Our focus is keeping Jersey connected, and we are excited to be providing direct links to France again this year with more flights added for greater choice and convenience as we look to sustainably build on last year’s programme.
“Rennes is a beautiful city that’s just a 40 minute flight from Jersey, and boasts excellent car hire, bus and train connections, meaning it’s also the perfect the gateway to the idyllic region of Brittany and destinations throughout France.”
The Rennes service commences on 23 June with departures on Fridays and Mondays through to 11 September, with additional flights on Wednesdays from 26 July to 30 August providing greater choice and flexibility for Islanders travelling to France and for French visitors travelling to Jersey.
Rennes flights are available to book now at blueislands.com and complements Blue Islands’ other scheduled summer services from Jersey to Dublin, Ibiza and Norwich.
