The number of travellers using the airport is set to rise from two million this year to at least 3.5 million by 2010. There are plans to enlarge the terminal building and to provide more space for aircraft. The airport hopes to offer flights to Glasgow and Newcastle this year and is looking at links with Copenhagen, Stockholm, Madrid, Milan and Vienna by the end of 2006. It now serves 23 destinations, 14 of them on the Continent.

Its a shame that a certain wind-up arsehole is allowed to make comment. When none of what he writes is of any value to this site. From way out there in the West Calder suburb of Livingstone.

Southwest VLM said their Fokker 50's would be payload restricted to fly from LCY to GLA thus uncompetative due to the restrictions at LCY but didn't rule out ops when they get jet aircraft in the future. However it could be that bmi will beat them to it.

Euromanx should be there 3 times a day but it could be their ATR-42's at the moment? Adding more weight to the likelyhood of Euromanx being the interested party for LCY-GLA, the latest addition of ABTN says it's known they are looking at LCY-NCL with 146's. Add that to the LCY admission that NCL and GLA were coming on stream and it seems Euromanx are expanding ops outwith IOM from a new base at LCY.
