There was a jump in passengers at Ronaldsway last month, particularly during the TT period.

The number of people passing through the Island's airport during TT fortnight was up by 12%.

Over the whole of June, there was a 6.5% increase in passengers, with over 72,000 travellers having used Ronaldsway.

These are the best June airport figures for four years.
