Jet2.com and Jet2holidays have restarted their Jersey programme, with the first flight leaving Leeds Bradford Airport on Thursday afternoon.

Inaugral flights from Birmingham, East Midlands, Manchester, Newcastle and Stansted are due to depart on Saturday.  

The Leeds Bradford and Manchester services will operate three times a week; Stanstead twice a week and Newcastle, East Midlands and Birmingham weekly.

Flights will operate to Jersey until 25 September.

Visit Jersey CEO Amanda Burns said: “We believe Jersey is ideally placed as a staycation destination for the UK holidaymaker keen to travel and make up for lost time.

“We are delighted to welcome visitors from their new departure hubs across the UK.”
