BLUE Islands’ known debt to public entities has now reached almost £12.4m after it emerged that the airline owes almost £3.3m to Ports of Jersey in unpaid landing fees and other services.
The latest figure comes on top of the £9.1m the company owes to the Government of Jersey in loans and interest.
Treasury Minister Elaine Millar yesterday confirmed that the Jersey-based airline owes:
- £7m of an £8.5m loan given during the pandemic
- £400,000 of interest on that loan
- £1.2m from the additional loan given on 12 September 2025
- £500,000 from the additional loan given on 7 November 2025
It emerged this afternoon that Ports of Jersey is owed £3.275m from Blue Islands from landing charges and other fees and services.
