“When the market improves, Blue Islands plans to add a second aircraft at Southampton, covering an increased selection of routes and frequencies.” said Blue Islands Executive Director Paul Simmons, speaking in Southampton.

“Blue Islands is committed to simplifying regional air travel - with no hidden costs or stresses over bag restrictions,” said CEO Rob Veron. “In addition, we know that our passengers require strong wellbeing measures before flying and we are pleased to have introduced a very robust set of measures to meet this very important need. More details of our Enhanced Wellbeing Onboard can be found on our website.  In addition, we are proud to announce our new product offering, refreshed brand identity and new website.  Our offering is tailored to the needs of regional passengers.  Our aim is to make flying a pleasure again. It’s the little things that matter and make the welcome difference.”
