BLUE Islands is increasing the number of flights it operates between Guernsey and Jersey.
The additional services are due to run next month in response to growing demand.
The airline currently operates up to six inter-island flights per day – three departing Guernsey and three departing Jersey – but has said it will be adding extra morning and evening flights on Wednesdays throughout November – equating to an additional 1,300 seats.
Blue Islands chief executive Rob Veron said: ‘We’re all now enjoying the value of face-to-face meetings once again, as such we have seen demand for inter-island travel steadily returning. We currently operate up to six flights per day.
‘It’s great to also be welcoming local sporting teams onboard again too, as important inter-island fixtures return – we’ve added several additional services for recent group fixtures. Increasing the frequency of inter-island flights during November enables us to build back better, sustainably.’
He added: ‘Blue Islands is here to provide year-round sustainable air connectivity to and from the Channel Islands, keeping Jersey and Guernsey connected is a vital part of this role.’
