Whatever your opinion of FS and it's management unfortunately when an airline the size fo EuroManx (35% of IOM pax) goes under then things have to change. Going from 6 night stopping a/c and 8 check in desks to 5 would always mean redundancies i am afraid. It is never a good thing when redundancies are made, think back 12 months to Manx Regional and BACON. The industry is volatile and always will be. On the subject of management, these are the same people who have gone from 2 check in desks in IOM to having 6 bases and being the largest ground handler in MAN in the space of 3 years! Sorry but I do not agree with the above comments. Although yes a more private location may have been appropriate.
