Blue Islands ATR 72-500 G-ISLK seen at Guernsey Airport on Thursday evening operating the weekly "Business Tunnel" return flight back to Jersey in her new livery.⁣ ⁣ Following the collapse of franchise partner Flybe, Blue Islands have introduced new branding and a new livery across their fleet and plan to also base aircraft at Southampton and Exeter airports in order to operate some of Flybe's previously successful domestic routes including to Manchester and Dublin.⁣ ⁣ ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• ⁣ A Business Tunnel is a set day of the week where business people are able to travel to the island on a day return flight to have business meetings that need to be done face-to-face during the Coronavirus pandemic. People using these tunnels, whether on a private charter flight or a commercial flight from Southampton or Jersey have to follow strict guidelines, must not make physical contact with anyone whilst on-island and can only travel between the airport and an agreed meeting room on agreed transport, maintaining social distancing at all times and only with agreement of the Guernsey Government. They must not go anywhere else including restaurants etc whilst on-island.⁣ ⁣ ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• ⁣ #BlueIslands #GCI #EGJB #GuernseyAirport #Guernsey #Flybe #JerseyAirport #JER #EGJJ #SOU #EXT #EGCC #DUB #ATR72 #ATR75 #ATRAircraft #29Aviation #Aviation #AvGeek #Plane #Pilot #PlanePorn #MegaPlane #InstagramAviation #InstaPlane #AviationPhotography #PlaneSpotting #Aviation4U #PlaneLovers #AviationLovers (at Guernsey Airport) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD9Q1-ZnhJe/?igshid=1finaodmyndpk

Boarding my Blue Islands flight to Southampton last September. Following the demise of former franchise partner Flybe and the ongoing Coronavirus situation, Blue Islands have been busy preparing to take over routes once flown by Flybe including Exeter to Jersey and Manchester, Birmingham to Jersey and also Southampton to Manchester and Dublin (slots at Dublin have been awarded). During the Coronavirus lockdown Blue Islands have been operating lifeline routes from Jersey to both Southampton and London Gatwick. #BlueIslands #Guernsey #GuernseyAirport #GCI #EGJB #Southampton #SOU #ATR #ATR72 #29Aviation #Aviation #AvGeek #Plane #Pilot #PlanePorn #MegaPlane #Sunset #SunsetLovers #InstagramAviation #InstaPlane #AviationPhotography #Pixel3XL #Aviation4U #PlaneLovers #Flybe #PlaneSpotter #TurboProp (at Guernsey Airport) https://www.instagram.com/p/CCObEnInCUj/?igshid=1vfg20p1m9j56

Blue Islands ATR72-500 holding for her flight from Guernsey to Liverpool back in the summer. Blue Islands has recently announced the closure of routes from Guernsey to Liverpool and Southend however after the sad closure of Flybe last night it is reported they are now looking at taking up the Guernsey and Jersey flights to both Exeter and Birmingham. Due to the Flybe website being taken down, Blue Islands currently has no way of booking flights online, anyone who wants to travel is having to go to the airport and book flights at the check in desks until a new booking system can be put in place. Whilst the loss of any airline is sad for all involved, it's very sad to see Flybe disappear due to the history it has with its origins as Jersey European, based in the Channel Islands. 💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍💜🤍 #Flybe #BlueIslands #ATR #ATR72 #GCI #LPL #EGJB #EGGP #GuernseyAirport #Liverpool #29Aviation #AvGeek #Plane #Pilot #PlanePorn #MegaPlane #InstagramAviation #InstaPlane #AviationPhotography #Aviation4U #PlaneSpotting #Airline #Aircraft #Aviation #GoodbyeFlybe (at Guernsey Airport) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9XN6EFnKgx/?igshid=1o4jz602627ix
