Tips & Warnings
  • Save money when you make your reservation online.
  • Manx2 offers shuttle service between Blackpool and Belfast, routed through the Isle of Man. Check the airline Web site for information on times.
  • Although Manx2 flies to a limited number of airports, international connections can be made at any of the airports served.
  • All phone numbers include the United States international prefix "011." When calling internationally from outside the United States, check which prefix to use. All country codes are within parentheses and begin with a "+" sign.
  • All passengers must have valid photo identification, such as a passport or state issued identification, or they will be denied boarding. You should call the reservations line to verify that your identification is acceptable.
  • You will be charged a per-bag fee to check your luggage when you book a regular ticket, so pack accordingly.
  • Due to the small size and short flights of all Manx 2 aircraft, there are no bathroom facilities on-board, so use airport facilities before boarding.
