Alas not. Im not too convinced BA will want to work with Loganair on this route to be honest given other things that may be going on.

IOM Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 Its great news that Loganair will be flying into Heathrow and it appears it will be the jet lets hope this can continue and become a permanent route an evening rotation would also be great when the border eventually opens. I think the Manx Government and Loganair should be congratulated for making this happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would they be available on ba.com? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re making it happen with our taxes so I’m congratulating us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IOM Posted November 23, 2020 Share Posted November 23, 2020 London City used to operate at 80% capacity and that was when it was operating three times a day . If London Heathrow has two rotations a day it should be able to keep going especially given Heathrow has far better connectivity . Let’s hope so as it’s excellent news for the island .

Yes I know, I was simply looking to see if they'd put something in BA for LHR (because it would make sense). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well that maybe the case but at least Loganair have made the effort to try and serve the island. I fully recognise that there has been some government incentive but in these unprecedented times I think that is necessary to serve the island and keep it connected. Its been remarkable the number of 'low cost' Easy Jet fights I have seen on the island since March which shows how committed they are to the Isle of Man! And I say 'low cost' as they were the airline who remember back in March were charging over £600 return fares to Liverpool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They haven’t made any effort , the tax payer is underwriting the full costs of all flights as Baker stated yesterday. So Logan Air are keeping plane & crew operating at our expense!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IOM Posted November 24, 2020 Share Posted November 24, 2020 Underwriting is the principle of ensuring the airline meet the minimum costs of operating if you listened Baker said they were sharing the benefits so Loganair are doing something! And how many Easy jets have you seen? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And how many Easy jets have you seen? easyjet is too big. Eastern, Stobart and Aurigny all offered to serve London too, but the Loganair fanclub down at the airport shoed them in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
