Blue Islands adds extra Ostend-Bruges Christmas market flights after sell-out demand

Share

Blue Islands’ special festive flights from Jersey and Guernsey to Ostend-Bruges sold out in less than a week, prompting the airline to add extra departures.

New three-night trips will depart Jersey on 13 December and Guernsey on 14 December, returning 16 and 17 December respectively.

CEO Rob Veron said the strong demand reflects Islanders’ enthusiasm for Bruges’ Christmas markets, with the airline expanding opportunities for festive getaways similar to its summer “ad-hoc” destinations.

Return fares start at £249, including luggage and coach transfers to Bruges city centre. Seats on the added flights are available now.
