In the absence of our normal source, has anyone got any details of this year's TT charters (particularly incoming ones) ?
From local press adverts the only outgoing ones I know of are:
June 3rd - Greek Islands cruise
June 3rd - Croatia
Red Arrows due Tuesday 5th at Douglas (presumably evening)
Post TT - Friday 15th June "Flying for Freedom" microlight flights for military veterans at Andreas

Based on 2017 expect incoming flights from Stockholm, Geneva & Paris; plus maybe Farnborough.

I notice from the Ronaldsway arrivals board this evening that has been arrival from Prestwiick. It appears to have been operated by Flybe as it was showing flight number BE964 and I presume that it may have been a TT charter.

With Alex setting such a high standard with reports and pictures of the TT traffic in recent years, I really hope that someone can try to fill the void in both reporting the added airline traffic as well as the huge bump in general aviation traffic too. We have been spoiled by the excellent reports. Either that or can someone please hijack him and bring him back to the Island!!!! And by the way, thanks to all who contribute to the IOM reports.

I believe Alex will be back for a few days but I will endeavour to "fill the gap" - here's hoping for some fine weather and lots of visitors !

Don’t panic! I’m due back on island during race week. Planning to take photos of what I can while trying to control the influx of GA, so may take me a while to process any photos

Island based Freedom Travel are advertising 'Escape the Island' direct flights to Menorca on Saturdays on 2nd & 9th June using British Airway LCY based equipment (ex Edinburgh airport usually ) . With regard to the 3rd of June my usual travel agent source as no details.
Re Braathens last year the Avro returned the Saturday after Senior race day so we can expect an Avro on either Sat 9th or Sunday 10th. Last years 'left field' was the Air Bucharest B737 YR-TIB. I will see if I can find the Italian sports tour travel operator that operated flights to / from Milan to the IoM
