Jersey is way below it’s limits. In the 70s & 80s it handled up to 500+ movements each weekend day - most of them commercial. Nowadays you are lucky if you get to 200 ! In those times, AUR used to operate up to 50 flights each way between the two islands. How times have changed. Now, the inter island service is around 5 flights per day with ATR & DH8-400. Inter island pax levels have fallen dramatically. I don’t think that having to travel via Jersey would have much appeal to Guernsey people. They’d much rather moan about their lot, instead !
