EasyJet pledges to fly to Island
Economic Development Minister Laurence Skelly has given a cautious welcome to the news EasyJet wants to fly between Heathrow and the Isle of Man.
Yesterday, the UK’s airports commission announced it would back the expansion of the London airport over Gatwick – leading EasyJet to repeat its pledge to set up a base there and fly to Ronaldsway.
The UK government has yet to make its final decision, and the work could take decades to finish.
But Mr Skelly says Heathrow is a destination that’s always been in demand:
Man treated for non-life threatening injuries following Ramsey incident
Two suspects in custody following Ramsey incident
Consultation open on plans to formally recognise the heritage of Douglas Head
Police dealing with 'serious incident' in Ramsey
Drop-in session to support Isle of Man charities
