LTN & STN snow closed

I think he suits the first one!!!:D 😀 😀 :p :p :p

What about this one

Does he suit this?

😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀

Don’t worry. My stupid head keeps our school open no matter what. Mind you, I can do a bit of plane spotting at my school as EZY, HH flying for FR, FR, MYT and occasionally BY all come in on descent into LPL over my school.

Our school closed!

This is my stupid headteacher who keep my school open when all others were closed, SHAME ON YOU

Ryanair did not put us up in a hotel, no. But you and I and everyone else here knows that already. Thems the Ryanair rules. If you book with Ryanair online, you tick the box to say you have read the terms and conditions and if you don’t – well, that’s your own fault! I’ve flown with Ryanair on about 20 return flights in the last year and this is the first time I have had a flight cancelled on me. In fact in 10 years of travelling frequently, I have never had a flight cancelled on me before now. Considering the average cost of a return flight with Ryanair (at least as far as I am concerned) is about £25 inc. taxes etc, I’d prefer to fly Ryanair and pay the small fare and put up with the occasional hotel bill on top as and when necessary rather than pay at least double that with another airline on every trip. In the end the family room at the hotel at Gerona Airport cost us €97.00 between four of us – that’s about £17 each! I’m not complaining at all. At the airport when the flight was cancelled, I never saw or heard one single waved fist, stamped foot or raised voice. It was all dealt with very professionally by Ryanair and their customers on this flight appreciated that weather just cannot be avoided. Everyone was rebooked on the next possible flight or given a refund, as promised on the website.

It seems to me that most people are so quick to criticise Ryanair but in many cases these people are the same ones who are online looking at their website finding the fares that they cannot say no to. 🙂

A day off at school because of the weather? That’s ridiculous! Lazy!

Our school closed! There’s nothing me or anyone else could have done about it, but I’m certainly not complaining! Me and my friends all look forward to ‘snow-day’ every year, when we will almost definitely get a day where the school closes, and we go and have fun!

I assume FR did not put you up in that hotel Wingflaps?!?!

Jeansk, loads of schools close with the weather over here, usualy due to their archaic heating systems! I was one of thousands with the day off yesterday lucky me!

Wingflaps2 and I were in Barcelona for the day on Wednesday 28th.

Our Ryanair flight to Gerona airport was 50 minutes late leaving Stansted as we had to wait for a de-icing truck to come and de-ice our aircraft.
Later that day after we had just checked-in at Gerona airport for our flight home, the airport made an announcement that Ryanair had cancelled our flight home due to weather in the London area closing airports (STN/LTN/LGW).
Ryanair transferred us onto the FR9805 which was scheduled to depart at 1445 local the following afternoon (yesterday). When we “strolled over” from the hotel opposite the terminal, where we overnighted at a very reasonable rate, to check-in, our flight was displayed as being on-time. We proceeded through security to departures and subsequently waited another 4 hours in the departure lounge, as what was an “on-time” flight, turned into a 3 hour delay. The aircraft came in from Bournemouth.
We eventually landed at Stansted at 1900 local last night, 20.5 hours later than originally planned.

We were having a whale of a time in Gerona and didn’t mind having to stay there as it was 16C in temperature – much nicer than being stuck on a road near Stansted trying to get back to Hitchin. We missed a day of work which couldn’t be helped, although it is being taken from holiday allowances.

We have flown Ryanair very frequently in the last year and have never had any problems until this week. This wasn’t their fault and we will (and are booked to) be flying them again.

Does it snow very often in these areas

No, only about a couple of days a year. And even then, it’ll only snow for 2 or 3 a day. Most of it comes overnight, then turns to ice and just causes havoc the next day.

I feel sorry for these lot:(

6G851 PLYMOUTH via CARDIFF 1740 CHECK-IN 11
COACHED TO LBA

I’ve just been listening to my airband radio, and just heard a CSA and an Air Berlin being diverted to Manchester. I think if i was on one of the planes, I would regard it as a nice treat! However, I doubt many of the passengers on there at the moment really regard it as this!

Yep it’s pretty darn heavy here at STN! All of a sudden, at 16:10 it just came down in a huge blizzard! Hadn’t had any since last night, so it was quite surprising. It has settled extremely quickly, I cant believe it! My dad has just been called into the airport for the 3rd night in a row to go and snow plough the runway. He will be there for the next 12 hours, waiting for more throughout the night……may this be the day off school I’ve been hoping for…..:D
