EUROMANX PRESS RELEASE
All passengers with tickets for EuroManx services can be assured that alternative arrangements are being sourced.
Accordingly Flybe will carry all ticketed EuroManx passengers to Liverpool, Manchester and also initially to either London Luton or London Gatwick on services where Flybe have space available to accommodate the passenger.
EuroManx passengers to Belfast will be advised in due course.
For the past 5 years EuroManx has focused on providing a locally based operation offering high quality schedules and services dedicated to the Isle of Man.
During this time the employees have worked hard to develop and grow the business but over the last 6 months a number of factors including rising fuel prices and reduced passenger numbers have proved to be insurmountable obstacles to the airline being able to continue to operate.

Flybe Agree To Move Euromanx Passengers
Flybe Offers Free Airfare Rescue Deal To Euromanx Passengers
09 May 2008
Low cost airline throws immediate life-line to stranded travellers
Flybe, Europe’s largest regional low cost airline, has stepped in to immediately rescue stranded Euromanx passengers after the Isle of Man-based airline today announced that it was going into receivership.
All passengers in possession of ticketed Euromanx bookings for Manchester and Liverpool flights can immediately re-book their free replacement tickets with Flybe. These tickets will be completely free of all taxes and airport charges. Flybe commits to making every effort possible to re-accommodate passengers as close as is possible to their original Euromanx flight date and time. Re-bookings must be made by the end of June and re-accommodation is subject to availability.
Customers to London City will be able to re-book with Flybe, subject to availability, for travel up until May 31st, 2008. In the meantime, Flybe hopes that VLM can be persuaded to put together a rescue package for the London City route.
To re-book, customers need to telephone our Customer Call Centre on 0871 522 6157. To avoid unnecessary waiting, passengers with bookings in the next 10 days should be the only ones to call before May 12th. Passengers will need to show proof of Euromanx booking on arrival at the airport prior to travel and this will need to match the forward bookings list that will be provided by Euromanx .
Flybe’s generous rescue deal will offer an immediate lifeline to passengers who have already booked with Euromanx but now find themselves without a flight, especially given the unfortunate timing as the busy summer season gathers momentum.
Mike Rutter, Chief Commercial Officer, Flybe, comments: “Flybe understands the vital role that air travel has to an island community. We are therefore pleased to be able to step in and offer stranded Euromanx passengers not just the opportunity to re-book with Flybe but to travel with us free of charge.”
He also stresses that Flybe will be working closely with the Isle of Man Government with a view to offering some Euromanx employees who find themselves displaced, the opportunity to take up any suitable employment that may exist within the Flybe organisation.
“In our commitment to serving the people of the Isle of Man, we are determined to do all we can to minimise the impact of Euromanx’ demise, not only to those it employed but also to those passengers who need to continue with their travel arrangements with as little disruption as is possible under the circumstances.”
Passengers not immediately affected but looking to book tickets for future travel are advised to book online as soon as possible at www.flybe.com for the best possible fares over the upcoming busy summer period. Prices start from just £18.99 one way including taxes and charges.
AVAILABLE ROUTES:
Isle of Man to Liverpool - Fares from £18.99
Isle of Man to Manchester - Fares from £18.99

Good luck to all the EuroManx staff - as a loyal and regular slf the news is upsetting for everyone, but none more than the staff.
FlyBe achieved what they set out to do when they dumped capacity on the Manchester and Liverpool routes. Congratulations to the IOM Government who's ridiculous open skies policy has led to yet another disaster for the travelling Manx public.

Exactly. Just a bloody shame the way the whole thing has been handled (or should that be mishandled). As per usual, alot of good people get shafted when they've put alot of good work in.
Good luck to all my friends at EMX.

Having experianced this sort of the thing before I can understand how a lot of people are feeling at this moment. However, if anyone is interested I currently work for a UK based freight operator who is looking for direct entry captains for the ATP. Requirements are 1500 hours total, 500 of which need to be mulit crew. The type rating would be paid for (So no cash up front) but you would be bonded for 3 years. Anyone interested feel free to PM me.
