Lonan3 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I heard it announced on Manx Radio business news today that Belgian airline VLM are starting a service from IoM to Brussels via London City, plus a regular IoM - London City service. No statement on prices as yet, but their website is on the ball! http://www.flyvlm.com/emc.asp?pageId=210 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FinloYessir Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 I heard it announced on Manx Radio business news today that Belgian airline VLM are starting a service from IoM to Brussels via London City, plus a regular IoM - London City service. No statement on prices as yet, but their website is on the ball! http://www.flyvlm.com/emc.asp?pageId=210 I just tried, and got a fare of £330 pp return, for a weekend to London City at the beginning of November. It seems the Dutch have recognised us for suckers, just like all the rest. Oh, I notice that this excludes taxes!!!!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Utah 01 Posted October 17, 2005 Share Posted October 17, 2005 Mr Pain, the airport director didn't say, 'This new service is to be welcomed. I shall be only too pleased to offer alternative employment to the workers from the Island's only resident airline when it finally goes bust thanks to the initiatives and policies my minister and I are implementing to ensure the continuing chaos in air services to and from Ronaldsway.'
