MHK says it would create jobs and reduce patient transfer costs
An airline backed by the Isle of Man Government could be a profitable business.
That's according to Garff MHK Martyn Perkins, who says the Island needs more security over its air routes.
The chief minister confirmed talks to have more Aurigny-operated services are taking place, with a report due next month.
As well as creating jobs, Mr Perkins believes having two aircraft for Manx routes would make financial sense:
So is now the time for the Isle of Man to have its own airline?
Mr Perkins thinks so.
