James Blonde Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 This is why Jurby needs to be maintained for emergency diversions. Now we're stuck with no Air Ambulance, mail plane or passenger planes until nobody knows when. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snowman Posted December 7, 2021 Share Posted December 7, 2021 A tiny bit more info Ronaldsway Airport has been closed due to Storm Barra after 'structural damage' to the terminal building roof. Plan is to reopen at 6:15am tomorrow, subject to a 5:00am assessment. The road in front of the building is also closed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nor even the airport ! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve not been hit by a tsunami or have a volcano spewing out red hot lava onto the populace. I think we can ride this out 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IOM Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 Its interesting the reason given for there not being more services to London is lack of demand. I wonder why the level of services to Liverpool, Manchester, Bristol and Belfast is not far off pre pandemic levels? Why would London demand only recover to a fraction of these destinations its nonsense? I suggest lack of demand is not the reason and its time somebody sorted out the mess! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lack of subsidy to Loganair coffers more likely!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoTailT Posted December 13, 2021 Share Posted December 13, 2021 I see a Loganair freighter arrived tonight. Have they turfed West Atlantic off the post flights? Seems a weird arrival. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
