Blue Islands CEO Rob Veron was pleased with the route’s success, noting its appeal for diverse travellers.
“Whether it’s a weekend immersed in Parisian art, indulging in shopping, savouring café culture, or enjoying family fun at Disneyland Paris, this direct flight makes it all accessible from Jersey,” Veron said.
“At the same time, visitors from France can now easily explore Jersey’s stunning landscapes, rich history, and warm hospitality. We’re thrilled to see 23% of passengers originating from Paris. This is a figure we expect to grow as our promotional efforts raise awareness in the French market.”
This strong demand highlights the route’s role in supporting Jersey’s visitor economy and enhancing its appeal as a premier travel destination.
The inaugural flight was celebrated with a special gate-side send-off at Jersey Airport. It was attended by representatives from Ports of Jersey and Visit Jersey. The event marked a milestone in Jersey’s efforts to expand its European connectivity.
Matt Thomas, CEO of Ports of Jersey, emphasized the route’s importance. “This direct service to Paris Charles de Gaulle is a game-changer for Jersey’s accessibility.”
“It connects islanders to one of Europe’s most enchanting cities while welcoming French visitors to discover Jersey’s unique charm. With this addition, Jersey Airport now offers direct flights to 15 European destinations in 2025. This is a testament to our commitment to enhancing travel options.”
The Paris service provides convenient access to the French capital’s world-renowned attractions—such as the Eiffel Tower, Louvre Museum, and charming Montmartre district.
It also positions Charles de Gaulle Airport as a gateway for onward travel. As a major international hub, the airport connects passengers to destinations across Europe and beyond.
This makes the route ideal for those planning multi-destination trips or international adventures. This connectivity is a boon for both leisure travellers seeking cultural experiences and business travellers looking for efficient global connections.
