Hospitality firms under significant strain according to Guernsey Chief Minister
The hospitality sector in Guernsey is facing three winters in a row, despite the Manx air corridor.

Although hundreds have travelled between the two islands since Aurigny started the flights three weeks ago, tourism businesses are still under pressure.
Mr St Pier expects this to continue for the foreseeable future:
