Director of Tourism & Economic Development David de Carteret said: “Tourism is a key driver of economic prosperity for Jersey, and with a resident population of over 85,000 people and a dynamic international finance industry, there is buoyant demand for an increased range of air services that meet both leisure and business needs. This strategy is designed to support our 2% economic growth objective by added occupancy levels as well as on-island spends.”

 

As part of a broader market development plan, Jersey Airport is reviewing its aeronautical pricing structure with a view to making air services more commercially attractive and sustainable. Jersey Airport and the States of Jersey Economic Development Department are willing to enter into commercial partnerships to support the establishment of new air services.

 

Jersey Airport functions as the strategic link for Jersey to the United Kingdom and Europe. The airport currently handles approximately 1.5million passengers and 10,000 tonnes of freight per annum.
