openflyParticipantAnnounced in Dubai this morning that as from the October winter timetable the Dubai to Manchester service will extend to the Isle of Man , three days a week. A spokesman for EK said that it is all part of the UK and Irish expansion plans. EK also expect to get traffic rights from MAN to IOM which could be interesting.

DerekVHParticipantDoh…. and here was me trying to calculate what aircraft they could use to land on the IOM! I just logged on to the AXA PPP site regarding a claim and there is a banner advising they now provide insurance for Man Flu, it was at that point I remembered the date!

DavidGordon10ParticipantI know you fell for the Isle of Man tale LP, but Gulf airlines can genuinely turn up in unexpected places. My local airport now is Geneva – and there are almost always small aircraft badged “Etihad regional” on the apron.
https://www.etihadregional.com/en-us/book-your-flight/timetable/ will tell you all about it. So if Emirates turn up on the IoM, do not be too surprised.
