Islanders offered a chance of final Trislander flights

AURIGNY'S last remaining Trislander will be used to offer charity pleasure flights ahead of its retirement.

Published

Five flights will take place on Saturday 20 May, giving people a chance to take to the skies and tour the islands on the last of the airline's iconic aircraft.

Three flights will be offered from Guernsey and two from Alderney.

Tickets are £40 each and all profits from the flights will be donated to Channel Islands Air Search.

The flights will last about 20 minutes, after which there will be a chance for people to take photos with the plane.

There are 16 tickets available for each flight and can be booked via aurigny.com, on a first-come-first-served basis.

People must select one way, and pick either Guernsey or Alderney as the departure, and scenic flights as the destination.

Then select the flight date as 20 May.

Tickets can also be booked by phone on 822886.

The Guernsey flights are scheduled for 9am, 10am and 11am.

The Alderney flights will be at 2pm and 3pm.

The flights are subject to the usual operational constraints, such as adverse weather.

Guernsey Airport has also agreed to waive all the airport fees for these flights, so extra funds can go to the charity.
