British Airways increases flights to Jersey

British Airways is increasing the frequency on its popular Jersey-Gatwick service this summer increasing flights to Jersey to 41 a week. British Airways currently operates 35 flights a week between Jersey and Gatwick as part of its winter schedule.

This means that from April 26 there will be an extra morning service operating from Monday to Saturday in both directions. These additional flights to Jersey will leave Gatwick at 5.25am, arriving in Jersey at 6.25am and the return flight leaving Jersey at 7.15am, arriving in Gatwick at 8.15am. This adds to the well-timed flight selection for international and domestic flight connections already available to customers.

As well as Euro Traveller, the British Airways Economy cabin for shorthaul flights, customers can fly between Jersey and London Gatwick in Club Europe, British Airway’s Business Class cabin. Those choosing to fly Club Europe as well as Silver and Gold Executive Club members benefit from access to the comfort and facilities of the Terraces Lounges located at both Jersey and London Gatwick airport.

Jersey is known for its picturesque old-world charm mixed with buzzing nightlife, elegant seafood dining in its capital St Helier and tax free shopping. British Airways offers a selection of quality 3-5* hotels in Jersey, some suited for families, others perfect for beach lovers and those who want to get away from it all. The brand-new 4* Radission Blu Waterfront in St Helier provides spectacular views over the marina, St Aubin’s Bay and Elizabeth Castle and is ideal for leisure and business travellers alike, or there is the light and spacious Mediterranean feel of L’Horizon, which offers spectacular views over the ocean lined with gold sand beaches.

British Airways Holidays Ltd is also able to offer car rental in Jersey through Avis.
