    Why do they keep 06R/24L shut for a few hours and also has there ever been much 06R departures.

    I hate Ryanair, they just seem seem so boring and plain.
    Easyjet are ok, but i think JET2 are winners.

    Scariest moment on a flight: Turbulance on descent into Monastir due to thunderstorms back in 1995 on a BY 757.

    Most memorable moment on a flight: Has to be the Monarch A300 take off from Tenerife to Manchester, it started spooling on the threshold.

    Best airline meal/what it was: Thomsonfly REU-MAN last summer, so much was given and the breakfast was fantastic.

    Worst meal: Probably on a Spanair MD83 MME-TFS i only ate the bread role.

    Worst airport visited: Reus, only about 4 check in desks, very slow and a complete shambles of an airport.

    Best airport visited: Manchester, the place has a great atmosphere to it.

    Friendliest cabin crew: BA MAN-JFK
    Rudest crew: Monarch MAN-TFS

    Im sure the England team used to use BA 777’s on short hops up until recently. Im sure they went on a 777 to Portugal.

    Many passengers wouldnt of even noticed to be honest
    I don’t think many people know a/c types.

    Old aircraft are more prone to delays than newer a/c.

    Yes but the North’s low cost airline could change. Look at Easyjet they started in Luton, Ryanair started in Ireland etc i see no reason why they wouldnt want to expand down south.
    Maybe in the future.

    So will the sun be setting on ground when im flying over Italy or will i see it in the air over Italy.
    Quite difficult working out the physics.
    I must say i do love seeing sunsets on flights.
    But what about sun rises. I enjoyed the one on way back from Cuba.

    Why don’t JET2 try and expand down south, maybe they could get Manston going again or even Southend.
