New MD says operator should have profitable future
The Steam Packet Company's £10.5m loss in 2020 won't be an issue long term as long as Covid doesn't continue to impact travel.
That's the view of the recently appointed managing director.
The loss of revenue was revealed in the government-owned firm's accounts ahead of this month's sitting of Tynwald.
Brian Thomson is confident the Steam Packet will bounce back:
Warmer than average May for Island
239 hours of sunshine recorded in the month
Increased DfE support 'to tackle rising costs and global pressures'
Expanded eligibility and increased funding for support schemes
Police appeal after two motorcycles involved in collision
Incident saw Tholt-Y-Will backroad closed for several hours
Childcare Credit payments to increase
