Political member for ports says route must make commercial sense

Flybe announced this afternoon that a daily service will operate between the Isle of Man Airport and Heathrow from 21 April.
A service between the two airports last operated in March 2002.
Tim Baker MHK explains why it's taken so long to find a new operator for the route:
