Hmmm. Weather delays on flights out of ACI are so common (even if small) that whenever I fly ACI-GCI-LGW or vice versa I leave about an hour, at least. Aurigny itself won't put you on a connecting booking of less than an hour, for a reason. Probably best to leave the bigger gap and then to go to the desk and ask if you can get a seat on the earlier flight if you arrive on time.

Public meeting being held this evening in Alderney by a concerned group of residents (some of whom are former management of Aurigny before the States of Guernsey took over of ownership) looking to form an alternative airline utilising new build tri-islanders instead of the newly implemented plan for Dorniers. This to safeguard services on the EGJA/EGHI route and bring costs down.

beaufort1, good evening. This discussion should really be taking place on the ALDERNEY thread and I've replied there.

Atlantic airlines
 

Intrigued where these ATPs fly to from Guernsey. Have tracked some evening departures to Brussels; is this just a repositioning flight?

Moving money from the EU bureaucrats to their offshore accounts :suspect::E ;)

Bmaviscount - The Brussels bound ATP is the week daily outbound JER-GCI-BRU flight for DHL

Can I please nominate the Guernsey Airport Website as "Worst Airport Website of the Year"? Was surprised, to put it mildly, how 1990s it is. For sure they must be able to find a teenager from Guernsey Grammar School that will put up a better website for them in an afternoon or two...?

Amongst other crap, the official airport website still mentions routes like Guernsey - IoM by SI or Guernsey - Southampton/Gatwick/Dublin by BE.

Virginblue - I am totally in agreement, the website certainly doesn't sell Guernsey or it's serving airlines & is shameful when compared to that of Jersey.

Meanwhile, back at the ranch:

New airline for Guernsey and Jersey in summer 2015 with Intersky operating flights to Zurich on saturdays with an ATR72-600. Flights operated on behalf of Swiss niche tour operator Rolf Meier Reisen.

Operates 30/5 to 15/8/15

Cityjet to operate RTM for the summer 2015 season with Fokker 50's & Air Berlin to operate a weekly charter to STR with I presume DH4's.

There appears to be a Cello BAE146 parked on the west apron with a very pronounced list to its port side.
Anyone know what happened?

I think G-RAJJ operated an Aurigny sub-service LGW-GCI last Monday and doesn't seem to have flown since. Perhaps it suffered some sort of incident on arrival GCI.

It burst a tyre on landing according to the local rag - it was operating for GR at the time.

heard more of a gear than tyre problem

Any news of any new routes for the summer, I know its getting a little late in the day, or will it be the usual with some increases in frequency?

I have gone to FlyBe's and Blue's online timetable for August 2015 and I'm not able to see the 4th BI and 2nd FlyBE flights perhaps you have updated data?

Pete

Blue Islands are 4 daily during the week but only 3 at the weekends. Gyazo - d739566ad027b04c6c511d58fa40c070.png

Flybe now appear to only have two flights on Sun, it was two on Sat as well last time I looked so my apologies. Gyazo - efb2ffee5d25d964b872fa2534b8793b.png
