Hi guys! I’ll repeat my post! 😀
My Dad and I were at EDI this morning for a 07.05 departure to BHX. All was fine until a BA Captain from a flight to LGW came on the public speaker and announced to the whole departure lounge that all BA services were delayed indefinitley. Then one after another flights got cancelled, the 6am KL flight was very lucky, just getting off the ground before the grounding!
So, as this was only a day trip, naturally we were sh!tting it!
The first LHR flight boarded at about 8am even though the current time of departure was 11am at the earliest! THis was in hope of catching an earlier slot.
Then, completely taking the ****, the first flgiht to depart since the ground ing was….a BA flight to BHX!! We could have been booked on that!!
However, in the end it worked out ok, we departed at about 08.30, about 1.5 hrs late, it could have been much worse…..
However, because of the delays I didn’t get any time at BHX in the morning, so I spent it at the superb Aviation Experirnce in the evening! I was suitably impressed with the live cameras that you could pan all over the ramp.
I also got a perfect Q400 mdel from the shop, all in all an excellent day that worked out fine in the end. 🙂
Trip report is imminent, I got loads of freebies, including £40 worth of stuff from the BSM driving school which was excellent! 😀
