Exclamation BA to quit Channel Islands

Although there have been rumours for some time of BA quitting GCI because of its intention to ditch the ATR72s and GCI's rwy not being able to take 737s, but I've been hearing rumours this week that BA is also considering quitting JER from LGW.

Loads have been reasonably good, but it is a business route and surely the airline values the business traffic from a financial centre. If it does go, expect some pretty strident (albeit totally ineffective) bleating from the Jersey authorities. Airport charges at JER have been a major bone of contention.
