FEARS about the airport runway have led to Flybe pulling its new jets earmarked for Guernsey, the airline has confirmed.

However, the Embraer 175s might go to Jersey.

Flybe general manager of marketing development Ian Taylor said the airline had planned to use the jets on the Guernsey to Gatwick route, but it did not want to risk it.

‘It saddens us that we are unable to do so,’ he said.
