    It looks something like you have to move all the destinations down one.

    Beat me to it! 😀

    That’s quite a list! 🙂 But it doesn’t look right, you have KLM going to Helsinki and FR going to Las Palmas! :confused: 🙂

    I did indeed, got to test out the beds, and comfy seats, that was the best thing bout the show i feel. Tho the VIP treatment i got in the Mini Ministry of Ownership bar was fab!:D And the Mini stunt show was incredible. Not a lot of freebies this time round. But the lure of planes was too much for me in the end. If any of u are 14-17 and +1.5m tall, go to the BMS school of motoring where u can get a driving lesson for 45mins abuolutley free. My self i am 17,, since Nov last year, and not really wanting to drive yet, tho i signed up, nevers jangalling, then i was told i wouldn’t get a go till 5:45!!!! 😡 And i was leaving B’Ham International @ 4:00pm 🙁 So go there early!
    So LBARULES and RIPConcorde have a great time 😉

    Thanks, I intend to make use of all the interactive activities! 😀 Except the Motoropolis or what ever it’s called and the taster test drives! Looking very much forward to the BSM thing! 😀 I should be there for when the doors open, as my flight is due to arrive at 08.15, I reckon I’ll do a bit of spotting at BHX until it opens. Unless the flight has a delay- Oh God no! don’t even suggest it! 😉
    The guy that does the Minis is Rus Swift, he was at a thing at Ingliston last weekend when I went to see the B777 at EDI, so my Dad and I sneaked in, anyway, he was in an Evo 8 what he can do is absolutely jaw dropping! 😮 He accelerated full pelt for the crowd then at the last second pulls a handbrake turn, does a few donuts-in a very inclosed space- and speeds off leving the crowd flabber gasted( 😉 ) and in a cloud of tyre smoke, what a guy! 😀 He really is so so highly skilled!

    I am going to the Motorshow on Wednesday

    Oh, the day before me. 🙂
    Regarding the VS stand, I heard they had a mock-up A380 on show! :rolleyes: 😉

    Well it won’t be a route operated by AF or VS A380s that’s for sure.
    So SQ has already been mentioned, but what about EK? DXB-LHR?

    in reply to: What Do All The Different Cabin Class Letters Mean? #719279

    I just got a genius explanation off of airliners.net, so if you are interested:

    The different letters are fare classes – and determines how much you will pay for your flight. In your example, J, D and likely Z are seats in the business class cabin….J is the usual designator for full fare business, D is discounted business, Z is another variation. The other letters are all economy class fares, Y is full fare economy and likely H being the highest discounted economy or excursion fare and so on. Q at one time was the lowest economy fare rate, but that has changed. Lots of airlines are also, at the moment, revising their fare letter designations….I suspect that this is a CO flight and they have changed many of the codes in recent months with lots of new letters introduced and others will eventually be dropped (ie, what was Q class is now the X class, V became U, etc, etc – what a mess.) The numbers next to each letter represent the number of seats that can be still be sold in each fare class, in this flight, the cheapo tickets are gone……when the number 9 is used, it means that 9 OR MORE seats are still available, ie, there are more than 9 seats in economy available on this flight.

    There are additional letters that you do not see, for example on CO you can upgrade your H class ticket on overseas flights to Business First for 40,000 miles, and then you will be ticketed in R class.

    The basic letters are P or F for First Class, C or J for Business Class, and Y for Economy class……the rest is fare stuff that can be specific to an airline.

    I see, that’s what I thought, do you know what the numbers represent?
    They never seem to go any higher than 9, and sometimes if I know the aircraft type on the route the numbers just don’t add up.
    i.e an aircraft with capacity of about 100, add up the numbers and it comes to more than 100!

    This is the best or only close-up on airliners.net. ‘Change for Good’ and something about 10 years.

    British Telecom – w*nkers though they are – shine like
    brilliant beacons of success, in the filthy puss-filled mire of your
    seemingly limitless inadequacy.

    Hold on a minute! I’m sure I’ve seen this said-with a slightly different subject matter-elsewhere on this forum!
    Ah ha!! 😉

    BA really have no choice to, what with almost every major airline in Europe and Singapore, Emirates etc. getting them they would lose out heavily without them.
