No information, poor. The covered walkway is an absolutely dirty, rusty and shattered window - embarrassing shop window for the island. Chris Thomas should get down here with his clipboard making lists. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2bees Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 There is a suspicious package - probably a clock in a bag you know how dramatic they are down there… 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What information do you want? maybe it's as simple as there is nothing to give at this time 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No other information until now - being evacuated by bus to the other side of the airport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol It's a 20 minute hop over, not an overnight flight which is what a red eye is. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One I've not seen at IOM Airport for years. Whilst I jokingly agree with the dramatics of the airport: damned if you do and damned if you don't. Far more to lose by taking no action if it turns out to be something! Edited June 16, 2022 by NoTailT Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess this will be the same thing, a ripped packet and some suspicious powder inside from the mail plane.

NoTailT Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 I love how we have reached a point that our business community just openly accepts flights on the Island are always delayed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
germann Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Can you imagine how gleefully zealous the extra-vigilant security will be with everyone’s hand luggage once it reopens? Make sure you pack clean undies, everyone! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swoopy2110 Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Nothing on the super expensive airport website to indicate the airport is currently closed. Poor. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

x-in-man Posted June 16, 2022 Share Posted June 16, 2022 Apparently, someone has a boarding card with a departure time the airline can stick to. Highly suspicious and unusual for this neck of the words. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
