Guernsey more positive than Jersey about travel

Residents in Guernsey are feeling more positive than those in Jersey and the Isle of Man about off-island travel, a survey has revealed.
People were asked about their satisfaction with cost, reliability and choice of destinations from their island.
The results of the survey conducted by Island Global Research, a market research and consultancy company, between January and February this year were compared to a similar one which happened in August 2019.
A total of 2,473 residents from Guernsey, Jersey and the Isle of Man took part.
Managing director Lindsay Jeffries said the latest findings highlighted the need for "ongoing investment, clear planning, and open communication" to ensure the islands remained well-connected.
The research found 39% of people surveyed in Guernsey said they were satisfied with the cost of sea travel - an increase of 17% since 2019.
Meanwhile 43% of Guernsey residents said they were happy with the reliability of the island's ferry links.
The figure is up from 2019, where only 23% of Guernsey residents were happy with the ferry services.
