    Would have been a 747-300 if Excel hadn’t screwed up and sent the POP flight to frigging Manchester…Bet the pax were furious…an 8 hour flight, followed by a 4 hour coach trip to Newcastle…

    Just to mention the earlier XLA POP flight into NCL, now delayed 32 hours and will be operated by a Boeing 747-300. Apparently the 767-300 returned to POP with a problem shortly after takeoff.

    Been a few A319s subbing for 737s on the STN flights when one goes tech so possibly that, or crew training

    Operated the MAN-MCO route during the winter after it first started on the A340-300.
    Think it only lasted for about a year

    EDI-EWR had an increase in frequency before MAN went to double daily, so that might explain it. EDI won’t be higher next month, I can assure you.

    I was on about your claim saying that a Ryanair 738 would struggle from LBA, it simply wouldnt.

    It depends where it was flying to. Somewhere like Malaga or Tenerife, then it may struggle

    Ryanair flights out of Londonderry to Stansted operate with 40 seats blocked off, i.e they only sell 149 seats on the plane, due to the runway length there. Off course, I believe Futura operate 738s nonstop to Palma from LDY with all seats filled 😉

    Im sorry, thats absolute rubbish, if a Jet2 733 with de rated engines can get to southern europe, then a Ryanair 738 would have no problems extra size and weight or no extra size and weight.

    I read that the EZY 737-700s struggle with NCL-AGP with a full load due to their de-rated engines. And as we know, the 73Gs have the longest range of all 737s.
