Actually, it is perhaps the other way around as Manx2 fly both BHD and BFS as well as Blackpool, LBA and GLO (and Jersey weekends)

Their prices are good and why shouldn't they dare compete against an airline that isn't one. Not all airlines have AOCs it appears and not all airlines with 'Manx' in their name are Manx. If you book Euro-Manx then you contract with a company registered in Innsbruck that flies mostly Irish planes and even they have a little sign at the doorway to say the flights are flown by Aer Arann.

Aint nothin over running a ticket selling office with a posh name and trying to kid the Manx that they have a "national airline" again.

I too fly EuroManx and am (now) satisfied with them but Manx2 provide a slick and payable service in all directions and are a nice link to Jet2 if you fly out of Bradford.

Remember, homebase is IOM and not GLO and Manx2 really are Manx

I guess that's why they dare ;-)
