What other pilots say about EGJJ
PPR via the Aeroclub, which handles GA on the field during the day. Fees are cheaper than in Guernsey (approx. £50 incl. 1 night parking), but parking is grass-only, which isn’t very even and can get soft/boggy in heavy rain. 100LL refueling has been available again directly via the Aeroclub for almost two years. You can always check the (fantastic) prices at https://atf.je/aviation/. Aviator Bar is upstairs in the Aeroclub building.
Attractive nearby destinations in the western part of the island: First, St. Brelade's Bay, 3 km south of the field. About 10 minutes by taxi. A great bay. For food I recommend “Oyster Box” (reserve; online booking available). For that sort of thing (if you’re arriving on FR or similar), remember the time difference. Slightly closer from the Aeroclub is St. Aubin, on the eponymous (huge) bay; for dining, e.g. at Mark Jordan. Alternatively, if the weather is calm you can go to the huge beach on the west side of the island (Le Braye); also not far. In the north, the beach Gréve de Lecq is very nice.
With prior notice you can have a rental car provided directly at the Aeroclub (e.g., via Avis). Otherwise, there’s Europcar at the terminal, about 800 meters away. There’s also a bus from the terminal to the island capital (Route 15). With the “Evie” app you can rent e-cars and e-bikes at the field as well as across the rest of the island, though the setup process is a bit time-consuming.
Jersey Airport (EGJJ) is suitable for both VFR and IFR operations, with no PPR required for most GA flights under 2 tonnes MTOW. The Jersey Aero Club handles GA aircraft up to 3 tonnes, offering professional and friendly service. IFR approaches include ILS, VOR/DME, and NDB/DME procedures, with clear ATC guidance and straightforward arrivals and departures. For customs, a General Declaration must be completed before arrival via the airport website; entry requires a passport.
Landing fees for aircraft up to 2 tonnes typically range from about £19 to £45, with handling fees around £25–£30. Parking is free for the first seven days; after that, parking costs about £20–£30 per day. Example: landing about £25, handling about £30, parking about £20/day after seven days. Avgas is available at notably low prices, with AOPA members receiving discounts and occasional bar/café vouchers. Jet A1 requires taxiing to stand 20; pre-booking fuel via the airport or Aeroclub website is recommended to avoid delays.
Facilities include a small bar/café in the GA terminal (Aeroclub), WiFi, and self-briefing terminals. Car hire is available at the main terminal (about 7–15 minutes on foot), with options for car delivery or return at the Aeroclub. Grass parking areas are generally well maintained but may have minor ridges; caution is advised when taxiing on grass.
Customs procedures require advance online notification; see AIP/NOTAM for details. The correct Aeroclub contact email is JACM@jerseyaeroclub.com; phone +44 1534 743 990. Jersey uses its own currency alongside GBP; credit cards are widely accepted.
Jersey Airport offers efficient handling, low fuel prices, and convenient access for non-commercial general aviation pilots.
