But on your large and congested islands at least you are now safe from the risk of an overflight going wrong. By the way, you call it UK CI airspace, but isn't it pretty much all inside the Brest FIR?
Wrong lol -
There are weekly charters to Spain and Tenerife flying from Jersey which were the recent domain of Germania (RIP) but the tour operator got Smart wings/Travel Service Prague in with a 737 MAX to fly from Jersey for them
Jersey Post reports today that Smart-wings had to ground their MAX fleet but can get a 737-800 in as an immediate stand in UFN
