Jersey regains Heathrow air link after six years
Bmi is to start flights between Heathrow and Jersey – reviving an air link lost in 2001.
The airline is to operate two flights a day to the island from the London hub starting on March 25, subject to confirmation of appropriate take off and landing slots.
Fares will start at £26 one-way from Jersey inclusive of taxes, and from £37.90 one-way from Heathrow.
Bmi CEO Nigel Turner said: “We are delighted to be re-establishing direct air links between Heathrow and Jersey. We have a long history and association with the island and recognise the importance in it having direct links into the world’s busiest international airport.
“The States of Jersey authority has been extremely positive about an airline with the reputation and history of bmi serving this vital air link.
“We have a clear strategy of bringing much needed competition to new destinations, improving our overall yields and serving routes where we see growth potential. Heathrow to Jersey provides us with an ideal opportunity.”
