'Returning residents should travel carefully'

Any residents currently off-Island need to plan carefully for returning home amid the Coronavirus outbreak.

That's the message from government following the news that EasyJet flights to and from the Isle of Man have now ceased with Aer Lingus services to Dublin set to finish today.

Officials say while they're confident Loganair flights will continue, it's possible some UK airports could close causing disruption to schedules.

They're also reminding people anyone returning the Manx shores must follow the rules of going straight into self-isolation for at least 14 days.
