Good news for Newcastle United fans

Ticketing agent Manx2.com says it will add a Saturday service to its Newcastle route after requests from passengers.

The service will run from October 29, leaving Ronaldsway at 10.55am and returning from Newcastle at 1.25pm.

Chairman of Manx2 Noel Hayes says the route has performed well throughout the summer, and a number of passengers have asked for more weekend flights.

In particular, he hopes the extra flight will appeal to fans of Newcastle United, who can now fly to the city in time to reach St James' Park on match days.
