Isle Of Man Subsidizes London Flights As Loganair Restarts Routes (Simple Flying)

Loganair suspended flights to the Isle of Man from London in 2021 but have recently announced its return.

They also hope to get leisure travelers flying to the Isle of Man from the UK. What do you think about the resumption of this route? Not many people were flying, and it was not financially viable to operate the route. This suspension was due to the unexpected loss of demand after the pandemic. Loganair previously flew from the Isle of Man to London Heathrow. However, the route was axed in August 2021 as the Manx government did not subsidize the route. The London Heathrow flights will also commence on May 3rd.

Now is the time to redeem points for flights (Minneapolis Star Tribune)

Frances Meredith of Raleigh, N.C., used a branded American Airlines credit card for everything from groceries to medical expenses during the pandemic, ...

Customers earned about half as many points in 2020 as they did the previous year, and redeemed just 10% of their available points compared to 30% the previous year. Take time to search for the best deal. Helane Becker, an airline analyst at the investment bank, Cowen, said airlines have devalued points multiple times over the past few years and she expects that practice to continue. Many travelers are sitting on larger-than-ever point balances, both because they haven't been redeeming their points and because they've been adding to the pile over the last two years with credit card purchases tied to airline loyalty accounts. Frances Meredith of Raleigh, N.C., used a branded American Airlines credit card for everything from groceries to medical expenses during the pandemic, piling up points with nowhere to spend them. That means if you need to cancel the trip, all your points and any associated fees will be returned without any penalties.
