Baggage system will be ready on time, says Minister

Tue, 24 Apr 2012

The Infrastructure Minister says contractors working on the new baggage facilities at the Airport know it has to be ready on time.

Work got underway earlier this month on a new system which needs to be operational by early September or Ronaldsway could lose its UK domestic airport status.

It's costing almost £3million to install the new outgoing baggage system, which includes new scanners and a new conveyor belt.

The project was approved in last month's sitting of Tynwald.

David Cretney says those constructing the system know they can't miss their deadline [play clip]
