Seasonal Flights Reinstated Between Isle of Man and Belfast
Loganair has reinstated a series of festive flights between the Isle of Man and Belfast City, offering much-needed connectivity over the Christmas season. The decision comes after other airlines withdrew from this route, leaving a gap for travelers during one of the busiest travel periods of the year. With four return flights scheduled between December 21 and January 2, passengers will now have a reliable option for their holiday journeys.
These flights, operated by a 72-seater ATR-72, are designed to ensure that travelers can reach their destinations smoothly during the festive period. Departures from the Isle of Man will take place on December 21 and 28 at 15:10, and on December 31 and January 2 at 09:55, with return services from Belfast City departing 45 minutes after landing. Fares for the route start at £64.99, inclusive of luggage, making the flights accessible for a wide range of passengers.
For travelers, the return of these flights is more than just a convenience—it's a critical connection during a time when people are eager to reunite with family and friends. The reinstated service not only provides a solution for those traveling between these two destinations but also eases the pressure on other routes, helping to reduce holiday travel disruptions.
Moreover, Loganair’s expanded presence on the Isle of Man, including the establishment of a permanent engineering base, reflects the airline’s commitment to supporting regional connectivity. This move ensures that travelers from the Isle of Man can continue to access a variety of destinations across the UK, enhancing their travel options during both peak and off-peak periods.
The availability of these seasonal flights will help ease the logistical challenges often associated with holiday travel, providing a dependable option for those looking to spend time with loved ones without the stress of disrupted plans.
