British Airways, easyJet and Blue Islands flights cancelled to and from Jersey Airport due to fog

  • ITV Channel's Rory O'Regan reports from Jersey Airport and speaks to passengers whose journeys have been disrupted

Thick fog has seen more than 20 flights to and from Jersey cancelled on Thursday 1 August due to poor visibility at the island's airport.

British Airways and easyJet services were both heavily impacted with hundreds of travellers stranded.

Blue Islands cancelled their return flight between Jersey and Guernsey in the morning but were not more widely affected.

Passengers were left stuck in departure halls across the British Isles as they received the news and tried to book alternative routes that quickly sold out or were also cancelled.

The poor weather conditions in Jersey have been compounded by widespread thunderstorms forecast across Europe.

Ports of Jersey says normal service should resume by Thursday evening but passengers are advised to check with their airlines directly.
