Direct Bordeaux-Jersey flights launch for summer 2026

Direct flights between Bordeaux in France and the Channel Island of Jersey are set to run this summer (2026), making this the first-ever direct link between the two destinations.

Scottish regional airline Loganair is to run two flights per week, on Mondays and Fridays, between June 19 and October 5, 2026.

Jersey Airport is already served by flights from Paris Charles-de-Gaulle, but this will be the first time that it is accessible by air directly from Bordeaux–Mérignac Airport (Gironde, Nouvelle-Aquitaine).

The flight will last around 90 minutes and depart from Hall A at Bordeaux–Mérignac. The flight price starts at €89.99 one-way, including a 6kg cabin bag and 15kg hold bag, per passenger.

Jersey, which sits in the Channel and neighbours Guernsey, is “a destination known for coastal scenery, island charm and a relaxed pace of life”, states Loganair on its website.

The new airline link has been described as a key part of the island’s strategy to improve its connections with Europe, and encourage visitors to come for short trips (although, be aware that Jersey uses the Pound Sterling and the local Jersey Pound as its currencies, not the Euro).

The airline adds: “Direct flights from Bordeaux to Jersey open the door to golden beaches, cliff-top walks and a slower pace of life shaped by the sea. From harbour towns and historic sites to excellent food and outdoor experiences, Jersey offers a distinctive blend of British and French influence.”

Loganair is a Scottish airline based in Glasgow. Founded in 1962, it now flies to 34 airports, including many Scottish islands, such as Islay, Orkney, Shetland, and Stornoway. 

It also flies to many other UK and Ireland destinations including Liverpool, Manchester, Derry, Dublin, Belfast, and Donegal; and the international cities of Esbjerg (Denmark), and Stavanger and Bergen (Norway).
