IOM Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 Easyjet are charging over £300.00 ( before bags) one way to fly from London in Christmas week with hopeless timings! That compares to Jersey where there are up to three flights and the current maximum one way fare is £153.00. Its time someone found some additional supply on this route to match the demand. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josem and CoC lobbying for 2nd runway use at Gatwick is laughable too. The demand is clearly there and its down to carriers to service it from whichever London airport they so wish. The problem is that Lord Jez is only giving a shit about Loganair and trying to deter any other operators. Apparently Wizz were looking at doing a Luton flight daily and weren't offered any incentives whatsoever, so walked away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have honestly never heard of anyone in a senior position anywhere on the island talked about with as much disdain as Jez ! I have not heard no doubt of all his antics and fanciful schemes, but FFS with this guy in charge you may as well shut the airport down as its sinking fast !! We have had some whoppers, Annie herself for one, but this guy seems universally loathed and mocked by everyone !

They'll be back in the spring with Birmingham flights. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's inherited a shitshow, a lot of the bad press is out of his control to an extend as it's so badly inherited. But I'm glad to see him standing up to his idiotic CS. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Voice of Reason Posted December 3, 2021 Share Posted December 3, 2021 22 hours ago, wingnut said: “approach the airport building from the right hand side” - wouldn’t make much of a meteorologist - is that smokers logic? No just normal logic. I assure you if you did that you wouldn’t even get the slightest sniff of smoke. And there would be no need to have an attack of the vapours or be such a drama queen. In my experience there is rarely more than a couple of smokers in the shelter which is enclosed on three sides so talk of needing an iron lung to walk past it is just silly. You’ve won.. Smokers have been reduced to having to accept being second class citizens, why try and rub salt into the wounds? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbnuts Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 (edited) Coming through this morning at baggage reclaim. Gave up trying to get a luggage trolley due to the first 5 or 6 being rusted up on wheels etc and wouldnt go where you wanted them too even back into the stack. Maintenance as always is zero these days with IOMG. How long does it take to lubricate 40 plus trolleys .????

dreamon Posted December 4, 2021 Share Posted December 4, 2021 No border entry staff checking the landing cards of pilots/passengers of private aircraft arriving at Ronaldsway, not parking on the main apron. It's a free for all. So much for monitoring IOM borders! Farcical! 1 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
