The Blue Islands Monday / Wednesday / Friday Jersey to Southampton service seems to be fairly busy. Designated by GOJ as essential workers and medical travel only, the route is also reportedly subsidised by GOJ.

Reported on the LGW thread BI are also starting to operate a once weekly flight Jersey - Gatwick on a Tuesday again for essential travel only, assume this is also subsidised by GOJ.

The Southampton thread has also mentioned BI's planned expansion (no doubt post crisis) into the U.K market with 3x SOU - MAN daily and a 2x EXT - MAN daily. The little airline from the rock certainly seems to be trying its best to adapt and overcome this current crisis! Unfortunately for both BI and AUR the SOG seem to have a restriction in place until the end of August for travel off island, this will no doubt hamper BI planned return and normal ops for a little while.
