Aurigny is offering islanders the chance to escape during Alderney Week.
Special fares have been made available for people who would rather avoid the annual festivities.
The airline is offering 185 return tickets to Southampton for £73. The fare includes taxes, charges and debit card fees.
Aurigny's commercial director, Malcolm Coupar, said: "This is an important time for the island's visitor economy and a very busy period for Aurigny. We operate many extra flights to and from Southampton to bring people to the festivities and this traditionally generates many empty seats going in the opposite direction.
"For some islanders this is the perfect time to get away and visit friends and relatives and we have looked to make as many seats as possible available at the special price. The service to Southampton is a lifeline route and we are keen to give Alderney residents as much value as we can."
Tickets will go on sale exclusively via www.aurigny.com on May 26. The outward journey must be taken between July 29 and August 1, while returns are available between August 5 and 8. Customers should enter the promotion code "escape" when prompted on the website. Bookings are subject to availability and must be made by July 15.
The Guernsey Bereavement Service has made three visits to Alderney over the past few months and would like to continue to help you. We are visiting the island again on
Tuesday, 23rd February 2024 and would invite anyone who feels they would like Bereavement Counselling to telephone the Bereavement Service Office on 257778 to make a time to meet one of our counsellors.
