James Underwood, Head of Commercial for Guernsey Ports, said: “Guernsey Ports is pleased to be able to welcome Loganair back to the Island in 2025 after a 6 year hiatus, and looks forward to re-establishing a valued relationship with the airline.  The new weekend service will add options and flexibility for Islanders heading to Scotland and beyond, and provide additional opportunities for visitors looking to travel to Guernsey for business or leisure next Summer.  We look forward to a successful season together.”
