Former Manx Airlines boss reacts to Flybe collapse
The former boss of Manx Airlines believes there are limited options for replacing Flybe on the Island's air routes.
The regional airline announced it had entered administration in the early hours of this morning, resulting in all of its services being cancelled with immediate effect.
In a statement, the Isle of Man Government says it's already in talks with other airlines to take over the Liverpool, Manchester and Birmingham routes.
However, Terry Liddiard, who now represents Travelwatch, warns the Island will face stiff competition:
'Significant work' needed to reduce people entering criminal justice system
Tourism professional calls for prisoners to clear footpaths
Government issues clarification on proposed changes to public housing policy
