Passenger numbers at the airport fell significantly for a second month during May.

Traffic at Ronaldsway was down by 14.7%.

The decrease is largely down to the volcanic ash cloud, which disrupted flights at the airport for several days at the start of the month.

However the fall is less than in April, when passenger numbers dropped by nearly a quarter.
