Here are my latest arrivals in Gemini’s PR photos (I’ll provide my own once the uploading function works again):

Incidentally, I see Gemini are to release a Landor liveried BA 777. I’ve been hoping for a while I’d get the chance to get some BA aircraft I’ve flown on in the colours of the time, and while I haven’t flown a 777, hopefully this is just the start of a couple of Landor Geminis (the DC-10 not withstanding, but I don’t really count the 10 as a BA aircraft, it still says B-Cal to me…).

ok, here goes. and you can see most of the rest of the fleet in the background of the various pics.

Swiss 320

ANZ 744

Aer Lingus 332

BA 777

BA 319

Nice report… I hope that the airline adjusted the pax weight allowance for all the rugby players on board – this sort of thing has caused more than one or two problems with weight and balance in the past!

The only problem I’ve had with flying with a Rugby Team was Air France running out of Alcohol at the help-yourself Bar in Economy halfway across the Atlantic, en route Paris-Toronto…

so you’d rather be on a 7E7 from Glasgow than a 777? :diablo:

yeah, Sandy, that’s a fact, but the other thing you can’t forget, though, is that all these holidays to the Sun are less than 2 hours’ flight time… how do Globespan propose to fill a 777 midweek to the States in, say, May (as opposed to the Peak summer seaon/everyone looking for sun in the winter). I’d refer you to my arguments for BA not operating longhaul flights from Scotland in the ‘I see BA’s plan’ thread. Globespan can’t possibly be looking to marketing a 777 service combined with onward connections to Europe to European/American travellers as well as Scots, surely?

CPH-NCL and CPH-VST (if that is the code for Vasteras) are scheduled operations.

CPH-BSL is operated three times daily, too, with QI [Cimber] flightnumbers, but also as an SK codeshare, which is also operated by CRJ’s.

new generation MD 11??!!??!

Sheffield City was a tiny airport, though.

Right as to where exactly it is… 40km North East of Sheffield, 50km South East of Leeds; 90km East of Manchester (across the Pennines). 5000km North West of Dubai (so no, not in the Middle east ;))

Shannon has nothing to do with Open Skies, though. It’s a stipulation by the Irish Government to promote tourism to the West Coast.
