    Leeds Bradford: Weather & Technical Diversions, Delays & Cancellations

    That’s yesterdays LS258 I believe! So an extra night in Mallorca and finally ends with a divert!!

    Leeds Bradford: Jet2 Flights, New Routes & Base Updates

    Interesting. I’m surprised they are doing that. Surely that means some people arrive more than 3 hours late and could claim ec261! They usually try to keep the disruption to one flight rather than knocking it on to another!

    Leeds Bradford: Weather & Technical Diversions, Delays & Cancellations

    Does the airport not have a contingency plan in place for days like today surrounding aircraft refuelling? Can’t they stick a bus somewhere to block the wind from blowing the chaps off there ladders!! It seems mad we can actually take off into it but can’t get a fuel hose plugged in! The...

    Leeds Bradford: Weather & Technical Diversions, Delays & Cancellations

    Crew hours will be the issue here. Be interesting to see how it unfolds! It’s kind of mad that we have aircraft attempting to land and flying around in it, yet the fuelers can’t climb their steps to refuel said planes!!

    Leeds Bradford: Jet2 Flights, New Routes & Base Updates

    If I remember correctly FD has over 80,000 hours on the clock! I can’t remember the DRT ones, but leases are ending soon. In comparison to FD, one of the 300s I flew yesterday had 59,500 hours!! It’s a good job they picked a newer one, for reliability issues! It is to be based at LPL and I...

    Leeds Bradford: Jet2 Flights, New Routes & Base Updates

    Definitely no Airbus at Leeds just yet! No pilots have been offered a course! Last I heard was 2031-2!! Unless the noise thing by the airport changes things, Leeds will remain 737 for as long as possible!

    Leeds Bradford: Weather & Technical Diversions, Delays & Cancellations

    Twice now Air Baltic have come in just after an ATC glitch to help out. Many tech aircraft, but conveniently the option to blame it on disruption and the following catch up.

    JZHL had a TCAS event / near miss with a TUI 738 on approach into Antalya. From what I understand it required an investigation so was AOG

    That was the morning PMI with the tech issues. It was the afternoon PMI we took into STN. She wasn’t very well at all.

    Leeds Bradford: Jet2 Flights, New Routes & Base Updates

    Both the 300 and 800 burn 2400kg of fuel per hour. Therefore making the 800 more efficient as it carries 41 more passengers!

    Manchester: Etihad Airways Flight Status, Hub News & Discussion

    My sister and partner flew Etihad this past Thursday from Mumbai via Abu Dhabi. They said the aircraft and the service was the best they have ever had. Just looking at the 'On board' section on the Etihad website shows just how great it looks on board! World_rep since when has Emirates gone 3x...

    East Midlands: Jet2 Flights, New Routes & Base Updates

    Looking at the above schedule for summer 11, I wouldn't be surprised to see flight times changed on Monday, Tuesday and Weds so only 1 aircraft is needed, freeing up another for more flights elsewhere. Unless they announce new routes...

    East Midlands: Jet2 Flights, New Routes & Base Updates

    I'd imagine it will be changed every so often. It won't stay at the same airport the whole time. They normally rotate them so that one plane isnt doing the same cycles every week.
