Jersey and Guernsey specialist stops selling through the trade

The trade-only brand is no longer taking any new bookings but packages are still being sold under the Jersey Travel and Guernsey Travel names direct to the public.

In a statement, Airways Holidays’ parent company, the Jersey-based C.I. Travel Group, said: “Following a review of our business operations in the post-Covid recovery period, C. I. Travel Group has taken the decision to withdraw from the distribution of its Channel Islands products through UK retail travel agents and as a result will no longer market and distribute holidays under the Airways Holidays brand.”

C.I. Group carries more than 40,000 passengers to the Channel Islands each year.
 
In September, Airways Holidays put a stop on bookings after 31 October. It added: “Any existing bookings made for travel from 1st November onwards will continue to operate as planned but no new bookings will be accepted for travel from this date.”

Agents with any queries have been directed to C.I. Group’s reservations team.

The operator added: “All of us at Airways Holidays would like to take this opportunity to thank all of our travel agent partners and their teams for their support over the past years.”
