Guernsey will be served by Loganair's 37-seat Embraer 135 jet, with a flight time of about 40 minutes.
The service, which was announced as part the airline's summer schedule, will run from Guernsey once a week on a Saturday, and from Jersey three times a week - on a Monday, Friday and Saturday.
It's the second new Guernsey service announced by Loganair since the start of the "open skies" policy decided by the island's government in September.
Cloud is likely to become widespread overnight and it may turn rather misty as well.
It should be mild though with moderate to fresh easterly winds.
Overnight lows of 9C (48F).

Vinery planning application rejected
Chris Quevatre
BBC News Online
Plans to change the use of a vinery in the Vale have been rejected by Guernsey's planning authority.
The development at Stratheden Vinery on the Rue Du Douit has come up against serious opposition and were today discussed at an open planning meeting.
Following the meeting and a site visit it was decided by the four members of the Development and Planning Authority in attendance that the plans should be rejected by a vote of 3-0 with one member abstaining.

Two businesses - a gardener and a car repair firm - have used the site for 25 years, and wanted to build two new units to trade from.
However, neighbours strongly objected and filed 56 written representations and a 591-signature online petition.
The complaints focused on the potential nuisance to nearby homes, whether the new industrial units are fit for purpose, and access, which is via a single track, narrow Ruette Tranquille.

Should States benefit from scratchcard profits?
BBC Radio Guernsey
Guernsey should stop profiting from scratch cards, according to the head of the island's youth commission.
Jane St Pier, interim head of the commission, said profits from more than just the Christmas Lottery should go to charities.
Last week a call to make the move was not debated in the monthly states meeting after politicians voted 18-15 not to discuss the issue.
New hospital decision should not be based on 'emotion'
BBC Radio Jersey
A politician looking at plans for Jersey's future hospital says a decision on where it should be built must be based on clinical evidence, "not emotion".
Although the previous States Assembly decided to build the hospital on the current Gloucester Street site, a report by the Hospital Policy Development Board recommended the government look at alternative sites again.
In particular, the board said the current Overdale Hospital site and the Waterfront area of St Helier should be reconsidered.
Deputy Kevin Pamplin, who chairs the Future Hospital Review Panel, says the whole health care strategy needs reviewing and this will help them make a decision on where best the hospital should go.
