Flights from Exeter airport to Manchester and Jersey restart

Exeter Airport welcomes the return of flights to Manchester and Jersey from today, both served by Blue Islands.

Services to Manchester and Jersey were core to the airport over a number of years, attracting thousands of regular travellers from the South West, serving business and leisure passengers.

“The initial flights in September and October will use aircraft from the Channel Islands. However, as previously announced we will base an aircraft in Exeter from the end of October, employing around twenty pilots, cabin crew and engineers in total.”
