No connection Allen AFAIK, the downsizing of tomorrows flight is very odd as it is 100% fully booked all classes, the unlucky pax being routed via England, must be some sort of operational thing, i fly EK a week on wednesday and have been told it will be a 773.

I work on EK check-in here at BHX and if I remember correctly, EK sub-chartered a flybe DH4 which flew approx 50 PAX from GLA-BHX (I’m guessing it was on the day of the GLA down-grade). Makes sense now as I rememeber somebody telling me that the GLA aircraft was down-graded. I had to deal with these PAX and they certainly were not happy but were given food vouchers!
