On the way back however, although the desk girl said the same the supervisor quickly put her right and sorted it with no problem. Luggage booked right through and no security needed at Manchester. Sounds like the check-in/handling company need to get their staff trained up. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WTF Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 3 hours ago, snowman said: @madmanxpilot thanks - that makes sense Just this bit left to understand: The current TAF for Jersey and Guernsey goes to 22:00 tonight. Why doesnt IOM go that far ? isn't the airport shut before 10pm? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IOM Menzies have been saying this for many many months now despite being told that isn’t the case. Not sure why they keep insisting that they can’t check bags through. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s perfectly possible that Manchester Airport policies for arrival from IoM don’t allow bag interlining because of the landside route they require passengers to take? But the same issue doesn’t arise the other way around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Onchan Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 I've just tried to book online with Loganair and there's no through flight IOM-INV-IOM or INV-IOM-INV. Doc Did you make separate bookings for each leg? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a quite a few people who have done IOM-MAN-NQY for holidays over the summer and had the same drama with bags outbound, no such issue coming back.

I know the full story but it will be interesting to wait for the bullshit. However I can probably precis the tale into "managerial incompetence", there is nothing wrong with the runway !! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
