I see there is now confirmation from Blue Islands that they intend to launch three new European routes this year. According to the news Paris (Beauvais) is hoped to start within six weeks and Zurich and Geneva later in the year with larger aircraft.
I’m pleased to finally see their expansion plans begin to take form. The Swiss routes should be popular with the Island’s business community, but Beauvais I’m not so sure. The lack of an alternative for passengers bound for Paris may be an advantage for Blue Islands, however, Beauvais is still a fair distance from Paris and fares will not be cheap. It surprises me that the Twin Jet's Orly route has not been developed as a credible option for an improved Paris service.
All good for Jersey though. 2007 is definitely a turning point for the Island’s air-links.
