Most people with any sense would realise that Easyjet/Ryanair would be bad for the IOM but remember the department that controls Ronaldsway has also shut a main arterial road into Douglas for 5 weeks causing chaos and was lambasted over its actions regarding the accident at the TT last year, so you would not bet against it. The IOM cannot suit their business model though or they would have been here years ago.
Better to get BMI to run a twice daily to LHR imo.
Anyone know how Manx2 are getting on with getting slots at LHR
?, seems to have all gone quiet
