Aurigny, the flag carrier of Guernsey, has reported a net loss of $8.7 million for the year 2024, attributing the deficit largely to increased wet lease expenses and continuing global supply chain issues. These financial headwinds have posed significant operational challenges for the regional airline, which serves routes between the Channel Islands and the UK mainland.
Aurigny (Guernsey) has expanded its regional fleet with the delivery of an ATR72-500, identified by serial number 1151. The aircraft, powered by PW127M engines, is on lease and will bolster the airline’s capacity for regional connectivity.
Blue Islands, a regional airline based in the Channel Islands, is actively recruiting Direct Entry Type Rated Captains for its ATR 72-600 fleet. Operating approximately 900 flights monthly between Guernsey, Jersey, the UK, and Europe, Blue Islands plays a vital role in maintaining connectivity for the Channel Islands.
