Minister of the Department of Economic Development, John Shimmin MHK, has welcomed the announcement from BA that they will be commencing scheduled flights between the Isle of Man and London City Airport from May 28th.

The Minister commented: “Today’s announcement that BA will be starting scheduled services between the Isle of Man and London City Airport is good news for the Island. It provides an excellent boost, especially for our business and finance sectors as the route offers both a highly convenient link to the City of London and key European hub airports. I am also encouraged that BA has shown confidence in the Isle of Man and that this also significantly enhances our already excellent travel links to and from the Island.”
