Fleet

Aurigny Air Services (IATA: GR, ICAO: AUR) is the flag carrier of the Bailiwick of Guernsey and one of Britain's oldest established airlines. Founded in 1964, it holds the distinction of being the second-oldest continuously operating airline in Britain after Loganair. The airline has been wholly owned by the States of Guernsey since 2003.

Aurigny operates a network of 29 destinations across the Channel Islands, the United Kingdom, France, and Ireland. Its main hub is Guernsey Airport, from which it serves regional routes connecting Guernsey and Alderney to key UK airports including Gatwick and Southampton, as well as continental Europe. The airline is an essential transport link for island communities and regional connectivity.

The fleet comprises modern turboprop and regional jet aircraft, including ATR 72 twin-engine turboprops and Embraer E-195 regional jets, supported by the Britten-Norman Trislander for smaller routes. With 321 employees and a 2024 profit of £6.0 million, Aurigny continues to serve its core markets with scheduled operations and maintains a frequent-flyer program for regular passengers.
