Blue Islands is a British airline with its home base on the Channel Island Jersey. The society offers scheduled flights between the Channel Islands between and between these islands and the United Kingdom and Isle of Man. History
Blue Islands was officially established in 2001, although Le Cocq's Stores in Alderney have been flown from 1999 on a small scale. The society was initially known as Le Cocq's Airlink. The company started with freight transport from Bournemouth to Alderney. On the same route, passenger flights were also carried out on 1 February 2002. From 29 August 2003, it was flown under the name Rockhopper. In 2004, society was taken over by Healthspan Leisure. The headquarters moved from Alderney to Jersey in January 2006. On February 14, 2006, the name was changed to Blue Islands, the current name. The name change coincided with the delivery of the first BAe Jetstream device and the opening of a new connection with the Isle of Man. In 2011, the headquarters was located in Saint Peter Port, the capital of Guernsey.
In 2010, Blue Islands added an ATR 42-320 and a Dornier 328-110 to its fleet. When it became known in July 2010 that society wanted to take over its competitor Aurigny, it led to a flow of protests. The acquisition was finalized on 14 September 2010. Fleet
