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:
“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.”
Connecting families this Christmas
Blue Islands is bringing some extra festive cheer with the introduction of special flights between Jersey and Dublin this Christmas and New Year. The four additional services on key travel dates will make it easy for families and friends to spend the holiday period together.
Blue Islands CEO, Rob Veron said, “We know how important it is for families to be together at Christmas, we’re excited to offer this additional connectivity for Jersey at this special time. Whether you're heading to Dublin to celebrate with friends or relatives, looking to see in 2026 in the Irish capital, or welcoming visitors to Jersey, adding these direct flights will ensure simple travel between Jersey and Ireland this Christmas and New Year.”
The airline provides up to three Jersey - Dublin services per week during the summer season, these additional services mark the first time Blue Islands has operated flights on this route over Christmas and New Year. Whether travelling to be with loved ones, or planning to enjoy Dublin’s wonderful atmosphere, the direct flights remove the hassle of connecting journeys during the busy festive period.
