Loganair adds Belfast flights for Christmas and New Year

Airline to operate four returns services over festive period

Loganair will be operating flights between the Isle of Man and Belfast City over the Christmas and New Year period.

The airline has announced it will operate four return services between Ronaldsway and the Northern Irish capital over the festive period after easyJet withdrew from the route.

The flights will operate on the 21, 28 and 31 December, as well as the 2 January.

Interim Airport Director for the Isle of Man Airport Geoff Pugh said: "It's great to hear Loganair is providing this essential route over the Christmas season, helping to bring families and friends together for the holidays. We encourage people to take advantage of this service."

Chief Commercial Director for Loganair Luke Lovegrove added: "It is incredibly important to us that we are able to keep passengers connected, especially over the festive period, and we’re proud that we are able to step in and reinstate a service that is relied on heavily over the holidays. We look forward to welcoming passengers on board as we fly them home for Christmas."
