Local partnership opens new routes for islanders

Wednesday 16 May 2018


A partnership between a local airline and tour operator is opening up new horizons for islanders with two new direct European city break destinations.

Blue Islands and Bontour have teamed up to allow islanders to travel to Florence and Prague this autumn.

Rob Veron, Blue Islands CEO, said: “Direct flights to European destinations is something we are always asked for by the travelling public. The partnership with local tour operator Bontour means we were able to create these one-off city break packages on specific dates. Whether it’s soaking up culture in Florence, or getting festive in the renowned Prague Christmas Markets, we hope these special packages will prove popular and become the start of many more similar opportunities.”

Robert Mackenzie, Managing Director, C. I. Travel Group, added: “C. I. Travel Group are delighted to be working with our long-established partner, Blue Islands, to be able to offer these two wonderful city breaks this autumn. Bontour already provides many opportunities for Channel Islanders to travel to Europe and this has been further enhanced by these new direct-flight breaks to Prague and Florence. I am sure they will prove popular with both Guernsey & Jersey residents.”
