Arran vs Euromanx, Round 2

[San Expiry]

And for those of you with long enough memories (all of 2 years at least) Arran had a go on the Island to Glasgow Prestwick route and couldn't make it work. I think it lasted about around 9 months though perhaps the choice of Scots destination was a bit questionable in the first place.

[Eh Hello?]

Round trip December 1:

3W: £173.00 depart 0710, back at 1940
BA £99.30 depart 0710, back at 2025
RE £39.98 depart 0655, return 2100 (although IOM closes at 2045)

Appeared in The Times:

“Aer Arann will perceive EuroManx as a soft, under-capitalised target who can be successfully attacked in a market-share war,” an airline analyst said. “The fact that EuroManx will have wound Aer Arann up by going into Galway will make things doubly attractive.”

Time WS got his mate Max Clifford on the case - some serious PR required to see this off. Any Euros care to comment?

Arann are to announce more routes out of IOM very soon, possibly this week. The gloves are now off!

Hmmm.... All very interesting, the times article. IOM-GWY to come shortly if I read right.

But Douglas Dalby indeed!!!

Made-up name or what!

Euromanx are giving up the GLA-IOM route so possibly aer arran will give IOM-PIK another shout.
