So will bmi have picked up the USAirways passengers and brought them to LHR or BA to LGW or were they shooved onto a train???

Why was the US A330 diverted???
Great pics. It seems the LX Embraer is part of your collection every week.

That makes sense. On check in we are told to start seating passengers in the middle of the aircraft and work out.

I think its 189 in the 737-800 but at least they dont cram enough people in there that the aircraft manufacturer have to add additional emergency doors.

59 does seem pretty low alright but its not high season just yet but it is friday and I would have thought a route like that would be full of weekend breakers.

I was just about to post this. I would imagine an engine fire or maybe a false alarm.
Its good that nobody was seriously injured.

But isnt there huge construction work going on in DXB at the minute. I remember news of some workers being killed there. I dont think DXB is as slot restricted as some airports but perhaps they are planning for the future??? And it must be a BIG future.

As far as I am aware this will be a Low Cost Airline airport. The goverment there doesnt want LCCs getting in the way and taking up slots at DXB.
