In truth, Aurigny don't have a great record in developing routes. Lifeline routes have survived but other commercial routes that they acquired or, occasionally tried to develop, have, at best, stagnated. To France they have flown to St Brieuc, Granville and Caen with no success. The route to Cherbourg died a fairly sudden death having previously supported direct flights from all three islands. I believe that pax dropped from 19,000 to less than 8,000 over a two year period (I never saw any publicity for the routes in normandie and only a couple of newspaper adverts announcing the launch of the JER - Caen route with no ongoing publicity), DNR is down from a dozen or more flights per week. The list goes on.
