  Loganair also advertising locally for IOM-based cabin crew, so I guess that’s a good sign of their intentions – there might actually be a choice/competition soon!

    There’s been competition on and off over the years.

    At one point you could lend one IOM based airline £1M and get a fixed number of free flights between there and London a year.

  Not seeing this offer on my free BA Amex so maybe not available to all cardholders?

  Avis offer is only on prepaid bookings.

    Yes, that’s true.

    It’s on both my BAPP and my Marriott Bonvoy Amex.

  Being based in Scotby -5 miles away , and working in Cambridge . I actually used and enjoyed the Logan air flight to Southend .

  My priority pass through Amex play got me in the lounge at Southend and for the Monday morning departure from carlsile a bacon butty and coffee from the CAfe hatch was perfect – as you really only had to arrive 20mins before take off .
  Onboard I would always have a row to myself – needed it as there isn’t much leg room .
  Free parking at Carlisle was also a bonus .

  The best thing however was being able to have a pint in my hand in the wheatchief literally 10 mins after the plane door opens .

  I hope any new owner operates a London route – Heathrow would be preferred but appreciate its unlikely

    Air Ecosse operated LHR-CAX-DND with either Embraer Bandeirante or Shorts SD30 in the 1980’s – sometimes with Home Sec Willie Whitelaw (MP for Penrith) the only southbound passenger.

  So, went onto my Amex app after I read the HfP update email and the offer I seemed to have picked up is substantially better the one mentioned here.”2 Additional Avios for ever £1 spent anywhere up to 4000 Avios”. T&C says “An additional 2 flat Avios will be rewarded upon spend of £1 per UK Card up to 4000 Avios“

  A lot of rental companies sold large swathes of their stock last year – now they are feeling the pinch…

    Renting cars since Covid has become unbelievably expensive but I guess little confidence to increase fleets whilst travel remains far from easy.

  • TGLoyalty says:

    not quite … lots of the rental cars are on lease and buyback contracts so they simply weren’t replaced when leases were up. Issue now will be that with JIT manufacturing and ‘right sized’ capacity it will take a while to build the fleet back up.

  Try Arnold Clark instead, they have branches all over Scotland – but opening hours tend to align with usual car showroom opening hours.

  I use their branch in Edinburgh, it’s a couple of minutes walk from the Edinburgh Park tram stop. They used to do a shuttle bus at GLA, but not sure what will happen with Covid etc.

    I second your recommendation – always find them to be reasonably priced compared the main rental companies. They only take a small fuel deposit and don’t block a large amount on your card even if you don’t take their insurance.
