Are company's new air link claims genuine?

Mon, 09 May 2011

A company calling itself Ellan Vannin Airways claims it will be launching new air services to and from the Island.

 

Its website states it's begun recruiting cabin crew ready for the launch in 2012.

 

Ellan Vannin Airways gives its address as Euromanx House at Ronaldsway Airport and says it will be moving into the building in July.

 

The company says it will be operating a fleet of luxury Embraer jets, but doesn't say which destinations it will be flying to.

 

There's a picture of what the aircraft's livery will look like - it's to be hoped it's not the final design as the Three Legs of Mann is the wrong way round.

 

The firm is linked to a Manchester-based business called Indulgence, which appears to have an interest in nightclubs and luxury chocolates.

 

Indulgence also says it wants to open a nightclub and a chocolate shop in Douglas.

 

Energy FM News has been unable to contact anyone at either company to confirm whether or not the claims are genuine.
