Citywing working on 'long term plan'

Citywing says it's working on a 'long term plan' to enable its passengers to organise their upcoming trips. 

The company has apologised for further disruption to its flight schedule a week after an incident at Ronaldsway Airport which saw the flights it operates grounded. 

It follows a decision by the Civil Aviation Authority to suspend Van Air's licence after problems with a Citywing flight during Storm Doris. 

Ronaldsway Airport had to be closed after the Belfast bound plane was forced to turn back and land on the Isle of Man. 

Since then Citywing has brought in a number of temporary aircraft to service its routes. 

Today a Saab 340, operated by Sprint Air, will service Belfast, Glasgow and Blackpool - tomorrow the same plane will also service Gloucester and Newcastle. 

Citywing says it's doing its best to keep passengers informed - something managing director David Buck has described as a "huge task".
