Alderney's a beautiful island, and I would love to go back, but with the fares charged between ACI and GCI by Aurigny I would have to think twice, to be honest.
I'm only one punter out of many, of course, but I can't help thinking that cutting ACI-SOU service would be a massive blow to the island's visitor industry.
Yes, it would be. But, that could be the event that would make Air Alderney a viable operation. Also, after all the years trying to get the Dornier to take over from the BN3 & now, just when it has succeeded in doing so, AUR abandon the route which is its sole raison d'etre ! I don't think so.
