OK, it’s not the easiest of names –<br />
pronounced Or-ree-nee – but it’s<br />
certainly one that islanders are proud<br />
of. ‘Aurigny’ is the Norman name for<br />
Alderney, the northern island in the<br />
Bailiwick of Guernsey, where Aurigny<br />
Air Services was launched in 1968.<br />
Aurigny has been serving the Channel<br />
Islands for nearly 50 years and is owned<br />
by the States of Guernsey.<br />
