Loganair, the UK airline, has unveiled a significant expansion with the introduction of four major new direct routes from Jersey Airport. This strategic move aims to boost air connectivity for both residents and businesses, with ticket prices commencing from an attractive £84.99. The announcement, made last week, includes enhanced services to key destinations across the UK and Europe, marking a pivotal step in Loganair's growth strategy.
New Routes and Pricing Details
The expansion focuses on Jersey, a self-governing island in the English Channel, with new routes connecting to Norwich and East Midlands in England, Dublin in Ireland, and Paris Charles de Gaulle (CDG) in France. Notably, the Jersey-Paris service represents Loganair's first commercial route to France, establishing a direct link between the island and mainland Europe. Fares are competitively priced: flights to Paris CDG start from £94.99 (€109), Norwich from £99.99, East Midlands from £84.99, and Dublin from £89.99 (€99).
Enhanced Connectivity and Capacity
In addition to these new routes, Loganair is increasing capacity on its existing Jersey-Bristol service. From June 2, additional flights will be available on Tuesdays and Fridays, with the option of two services on Sundays, providing greater flexibility for travellers. This expansion underscores Loganair's commitment to improving access and choice for customers in Jersey, whether for work, leisure, or onward connections.
Executive Insights and Benefits
Ronnie Matheson, Chief Commercial Officer at Loganair, emphasised the importance of this development, stating, "Strengthening connectivity from Jersey is hugely important to Loganair, and these new routes represent a meaningful step forward for the island. By adding direct services to key UK cities, Dublin, and Paris, we're giving customers in Jersey more choice, better access, and greater flexibility." He added that this milestone demonstrates the airline's ongoing investment in routes that deliver real value for island communities while maintaining high service standards.
Matt Thomas, Chief Executive of Ports of Jersey, expressed delight at the launch, noting, "We are delighted that Loganair is launching four new services for summer 2026. This further commitment enables islanders to enjoy connectivity to these popular UK and European destinations and demonstrates the appeal of our wonderful island to visitors."
