Exclamation Manx forced to ground 5 of its fleet

Taken from the BBC:

AIRLINE LEFT OUT OF GOVERNMENT INSURANCE DEAL

Passengers are today facing disruption after the Isle of Man was left out of a Government insurance deal fro airlines.

Manx Airlines said it was having to use aircraft registered in the UK after a Government deal to insure airlines was announced last Friday.

Having been left out of the deal, Manx have had to ground five of its aircraft. They say there are some delays as they wait for UK registered aircraft to arrive to operate their routes.

The airline is currently in talks with the Government to find a resolution.
