Specialist German tour operator Globalis has partnered with Blue Islands to operate flights from 22 German airports, as well as a Swiss one, to bring holidaymakers to Jersey over a 16-week period this summer.

Flights will operate on Saturdays and Sunday from 13 April until 16 June and from 21 September until 27 October from a total of 23 different airports.

As well as the inbound flights for Globalis, Blue Islands will operate series charter services into the Channel Islands this summer, from Rotterdam, Zurich and Groningen for 22, 18 and eight-week periods respectively.

Rob Veron, Blue Islands CEO commented: “Globalis has been organising bespoke holidays for visitors to Jersey for the past eight years, that’s why we’re extremely proud to have been selected for the first time to operate its extensive 2019 programme from Germany to Jersey this summer. As a Channel Islands based airline, and experienced charter operator, Blue Islands is able to meet the needs of Globalis’ market.

"We look forward to welcoming our German guests to Jersey this summer, partnerships with specialist tour operators are key to evolving our tourism proposition.”

Keith Beecham, Visit Jersey CEO said, “It’s great news that Blue Islands and Globalis will be cooperating to bring German holidaymakers to Jersey in 2019. We are especially pleased that planes will start arriving earlier - from April and leaving later in October so some German visitors can experience Jersey in Spring or Autumn.”
