Island's Airport Director welcomes return of Flybe

The Island's Airport director has welcomed the news Flybe is returning to the Isle of Man.

As announced earlier this week the airline will now offer flights between the Island and Belfast and London Heathrow. 

The Belfast route will begin again on October 30, with Heathrow due to launch the following day. 

Gary Cobb says the airport is 'very happy' to welcome Flybe back to the Island and believes the routes will add 'choice and flexibility' to Islanders. 

Flights to and from Belfast start at £29.99 and London Heathrow from £71.99.
