So does this mean that EMX has been sold or the parent company has just changed names.

I presume some posts from today have been deleted/moved. If not who was fragul asking

first of many

I suspect this is the tip of the iceberg. No doubt the full story of the MBO and top level departures will materialise. They're obviously related as no doubt is the bank calling the shots.

Don't believe all the bad news rumours, just as flybe are getting to some sense of regular routine doesn't mean it is time to have a go at EuroManx. The word from the inside is consolidation, development and possibly new routes. But the key thing to come that the Islands aviation scene needs is STABILITY

From what i can gather it was a conflict of interests possibly or just a clash of ideas, EuroManx are not in as badder position as people make out

I hear on Manx Radio that Austro-Manx are outsourcing ticket desk at Ronaldsway and Reservations Centre. All staff involved to be made redundant from middle November.

It's the beginning of the end it sounds like - abandon ship while you can my fellow colleagues!

More cuts

Just heard that Euromanx are chopping head office. seams they are getting Flight Support to do ticket desk and outsorcing reservations again. Lets hope they keep it on the island so everyone gets a job with whoever the new supplier is.

I can't see how outsourcing of ticket desk will be an issue. Flight Support will most likely require additional personnell to man the desk and they also provide a fantastic service for FlyBe already, everyone wins

where does it end

I agree that outsourcing ticket desk is a sensible move. Can't think why wasn't done before as it's the way to go. Heard Manx radio tonight tho and the story there doesnt tie in with what Res staff were told today. Girls in Res think they're being "Outsourced" next month but not to Flight support. Someone's tellin porkies..

Well there may be a seperate plan between Res and ticket desk. The call centre aspect of it could easily be outsourced off the airport, that would not be an issue, but surely EuroManx will want to maintain a front of house presence in IOM? who else could handle the ticket desk in IOM? the only options would seem to be flight support or manx regional... the latter would present some issues.. such as contracts. as they are tied to flight support for a good deal of time yet I cannot see manx regional getting involved.

so whats the story???

Good just mean that Euromanx is up for a fleet renewal?

Confused.

EuroManx

There appears to be a number of wierd and creative rumours about EuroManx of late. As I undertsand it and having spoken to some very senior people around the traps, I suggest the following is more factual:
1. Ticket desk & reservations center:
The ticket desk is being outsourced to Flight Support (their handling agent) and the reservations center is remaining in-house. Makes total sence to me.
2. Cancelled flights on 21st October:
A total of 3 flights were cancelled on Sunday the 21st of October because of a tech aircraft. It happens.
3. The head of sales walks out:
Not true. he resigned sometime agio for "greener pastures".
4. Sale of Dash8 aircraft:
EMX are just considering their options including a single Dash8 type i.e.: all 200's, 300's or 400's instead of the 200/300 combination.
5. New routes:
After a period of consilidation and stability EMX are now looking very intensly at a couple of new routes and I beleive one of them is a European destination from the IOM. They would not elabotrate further but apparently it is a very real possibility.

Is it also a coincidence that the Flybe rumour mill indicates a potential 3rd based Q400 to do IOM/LPL from summer timetable '08!!

Could this just be someone mischief making though. There seems too much information in the circular.

I would be surprised if a circular would give the registration and operator otherwise potential purchases could just bypass the agent and deal direct.
