The airline was established on 7 August 2002 and started operations on 19 August 2002. It is no relation to Manx Airlines which operated for many years prior to purchase by British Airways. It was established by Allan Keen, managing director of Isle of Man based Woodgate Aviation. John Seymour, chief executive of Club328 and UK investors acquired EuroManx fully in September 2004.
EuroManx initially operated with leased equipment including Beech 1900 and ATR 42 aircraft from Rossair and subsequently Fokker 50's from Denim Air. EuroManx introduced their own aircraft during 2005 with two Avro RJ70 (EI-CPJ and EI-CPK), two Dornier 328's (D-CMTM and D-CPRW), Dash 8-201 OE-HBB and Dash 8-301 OE-HBC aircraft.
In June 2005, EuroManx successfully bought the passenger service of Emerald Airways, another low cost carrier operating services from Liverpool. These services are now operated using an ATR leased in from Aer Arann. Competition from Manx2 on their Belfast route has increased with Manx2 launching a 10 daily service.
In October 2005,prior to the arrival of Manx2, EuroManx restructured its operation, shutting down all its scheduled international services except Dublin, and eliminating domestic service to Bristol,Southampton,Glasgow and Stansted airports. Its RJ70 fleet was announced as retired, however both airframes continued flying until withdrawn in February 2006.
In February 2006, EuroManx restructured again and withdrew from the Dublin route. The Dornier 328 and RJ70 fleets were withdrawn and operations continued with the remaining two Dash 8 aircraft.
EuroManx serves the following destinations (July 2006):
Euromanx now operates as sole operator into Liverpool,and competes into London City with VLM [1], Manchester with BA[2] and Belfast City with Manx2[[3]].
As of December 2006, the EuroManx fleet includes the following aircraft [1] :
- 1 ATR 72 (EI-REJ) leased From Aer Arann
- 1 Bombardier Dash 8 Q200 (OE-HBB)
- 1 Bombardier Dash 8 Q300 (OE-HBC)
