Would you be happy to fly?

Thursday 18 June 2020

Blue Islands has launched a survey, asking people in Guernsey how they feel about air travel following the covid-19 crisis and any factors that would be important when deciding whether to fly again.

The airline is still far from 'business as usual', but is preparing to get up and running once more in the near future.

It is operating lifeline routes between Jersey and the UK, but all of its Guernsey services are grounded. 

"Whilst we may not have been operating as normal over the recent weeks, we are using this time to review our entire offering, including a comprehensive evaluation of what our passengers want from Blue Islands as we look forwards," explained CEO, Rob Veron.

"As part of this development process, we are launching two surveys and would very much appreciate as many people as possible taking part. 

"The first survey, which will only take a few minutes to complete, seeks to understand people's views and ideas on air travel when flying resumes. We would like to identify what factors will be important when people choose to fly again and what will be the key reasons for travel.

"We are also seeking views on what additional steps we can take that will help enable passengers to begin flying again with peace of mind and confidence."

A follow up survey will focus on how the airline can adapt its service offerings ahead of the re-launch.

"We would really appreciate invaluable feedback as we look forward to being able to travel with confidence again," Mr Veron added. "Thank you from all of us at Blue Islands for the continued support."
