Sunday newspapers to arrive late today

No Ben-my-Chree, plus flight restrictions

Newspapers won't be in the shops until after 3pm today, due to difficulties getting them onto the Island.

The papers are being flown here this afternoon, as the Ben-my-Chree is out of service for essential maintenance.

Normally, they'd be carried by boat overnight.

Due to restricted opening hours at Ronaldsway, 3pm was the earliest arrival time possible, and GE White Limited will deliver papers to shops soon afterwards.

Newsagents with home delivery services are making special arrangements to get copies to their customers as quick as they can.

If you have trouble buying a copy, you're asked to email news@gewhite.co.im who will arrange for it to be sent to your local shop on Monday morning.
