Gary Cobb is due to take up the position at Ronaldsway in August
The new airport director will be able to claim up to £10,000 to fund his move to the Isle of Man later this year.
Former Infrastructure Minister Tim Crookall confirmed Gary Cobb will be able to submit receipts to claim back the cost of relocating for his new position.
Mr Cobb is due to take up the post in August.
Mr Crookall insists this figure is in line with the civil service scheme to bring workers from outside the Isle of Man into Island-based roles:
Sailings altered as 'ongoing dredging issues' lead to 'insufficient water depths in Douglas port'
Manx Care asks all GPs to formally adopt Jess's Rule
Government 'taking rising fuel prices seriously'
