Glad all my flights are from Luton this summer bar one.
What do you mean by the departure ramp, I cant visualise exactly what you mean?
Maybe the drop off point outside the airport?
There isnt a G? There wouldnt be anyway would they, it would just be ABCDEF ?
Sorry, I’m a bit of a dumb-arse. :rolleyes:
I meant to say there isn’t an F, so go for D and E!
Thanks for that! 😉
Use the electronic check-in to find out what the first row of economy is. Its normally row four or five, but you often find that it is still in business class configuration, so it’s only 2-2 and not 3-3.
Other than that, go for seats 8E and 8F. There isn’t a G, so you get piles of extra space to your right.
🙂
Forgive me for being so dense, but what is the prize? :confused: :confused:
Probably wise to post mine and Mr Simpson’s plans for getting there and back. Like Dublin back in December, the flight times couldn’t be any worse. That’s no thanks to bmi deciding to change the times of both flights about 8 weeks ago!!!

Wow, it even has lights on the wings and in the cabin itself! 😮
What’s the price on it?
I have just tried it 12 times and had no luck either.
Surely it has something to do with the fact that because we click the “click here if you don’t have an e-ticket number” option. By default, it enters KLM2530941325 and so, I reckon the computer is saying that anybody that enters that number can’t win.
I’ve never liked the food served up by charter airlines. The meals are far too simple, the portions are too small and presentation is not taken into account when preparing them. That’s my opinion of them.
The best meal I’ve had was red pork and rice with Thai Airways in 2003. It was piping hot throughout, there was plenty of it, presentation was superb and to top it off, it was served in china dishes – not Tupperware rubbish.
EVA Air’s Business Class was also very nice and meals were made to order. It did seem that we were served up the same food as those passengers in Economy class, but time had been spent in serving the meals up. They were fit for a King!
Nice shots, is there any reason why your flying with the spoliers up in the first few pics?
I was going to ask the same question, but excellent pics nonetheless! 🙂
I’m also Anto-Ryanair and would not fly them again, whether they are 50% cheaper than a rival airline or not.
One flight with the airline taught me not to fly with them again. Even though only an hour’s flight, I was uncomfortable, service was terrible and the aircraft was disgustingly dirty.
You might be able to look up the type used from the airport webste (LHR/LGW). Don’t know how BAA handles it, but Schiphol displays the aircraft type too. Since most routes are always operated by the same type a rough indication can be made this way.
Yup, spot on.
Go to http://www.baa.com/main/airports/heathrow/flight_information_frame.html and this is the timetable for Heathrow. Select the destination and view the days all flights to that destination operate, times of departure and arrival, the aircraft type and the flight number.
With Virgin, it tells you what type of A340 it is as well.
Thai 747-400 looking very nice 😀 I been on TGB as well!
Nice shots!
Like most of the threads of photos tonight, I’ve been on one of them in your batch – G-EZDC, the easyJet A319.
This might be of some use:

(Apologies for the rather large file size) 🙂
Anyone esle been on any remarkable hybrids ?
I have been on an all white BY732 and a BY 732 with just a blue belly.
Like I said a few days ago, G-OBYI in the Summer of 2001 from La Romana (Dom Rep) to Gatwick. The aircraft was half in the navy blue and white Britannia colours, complete with Garuda Indonesia titles and tail.
