Daily flights to Manchester, Birmingham, and Bristol are among the routes listed from Guernsey in Aurigny's 2025 summer programme.

The States-owned airline has increased its London City service to 15 flights per week while the London Stansted service has been scrapped.

Last month tourism businesses raised concerns about delays to travel schedules being published.

The airline said it had taken a "phased approach to the schedule release" - its latest announcement includes three flights per week to Dublin on Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Sundays.

'Operational integrity'

Its Edinburgh route will continue, operating once a week on Wednesdays, and its Paris flights will run on Mondays and Fridays.

A route to Leeds Bradford will operate twice a week, on Wednesdays and Saturdays, from 21 May to 27 September.

A review published earlier this month into the fleet make-up and decision-making in 2024 found a shortfall of pilots was the biggest issue the company faced.

The review was commissioned in August after disruption throughout the year.

Sudeep Ghai, chief commercial officer, said: "We have carefully curated our summer 2025 programme, balancing the delivery of the right connectivity for our community and operational integrity.

"We’re especially pleased to bring back our popular Paris, Edinburgh, and London City services, building on their success."
