Little uptake means the Special Delivery by air trial will end in early October.
When Guernsey Post switched to incoming and outgoing mail deliveries by sea, it promoted a Special Delivery option where islanders could chose to send their post by air.
But since July they say uptake has been about 5% which does not justify keeping the service.
It means anyone who needs to get post off island quickly will have to use a courier service from early October, as the trial ends then.
Guernsey Post CEO Steve Sheridan says there has not been the demand for the air service:
" Given the limited uptake during the trial, customer demand has not been sufficient to justify continuing the air-based service beyond the trial period."
