It's a 72 for inter-island and JER SOU. GCI SOU is a dead loss for them so once the JS fleet goes the few GCI SOU passengers will go via JER. A 42 will open GCI LCY. Aurignyflot has got its own way as well I hear and have got a guaranteed monopoly on GCI LGW.

GCI-LCY that is good competition for Aurigny unlike a head to head on LGW. It also give us the paying passengers a better choice of destinations and will keep the prices honest on other routes.
Shame there is not an ATR.. GCI-JER-AMS-GCI-JER early morning prior to 07:30 and late afternoon JER-GCI-AMS-JER-GCI landing about 20:30 for the business / leisure (code share) world to connect with KLM/AF long haul traffic. Better than LHR to transfer from. Would also give an early G-J and late J-G hop for local traffic.
Lets wait and see ...please

ATR 72
Confirmed in an advert in todays press and on their website, ATR 72 to operate GCI-SOU 3 x daily direct departing at 07:15, 13:25 and 18:00 starting mid December. Taking FlyBE head on!
A previous MD of Blue liked to describe Blue Islands on the SOU route as "the itch that Flybe couldn't scratch." I think now with the introduction of an ATR72 Flybe will be getting the back scratcher ready for use.
