Unfortunately the Red Dragon does tend to suffer at the hands of the weather. However, the overall situation isn't improved by an Ops dept who don't seem to know what is going on. Very recently, we had numerous telexes at NCL ops to tell us the morning flight was delayed due poor weather and to inform the pax. Upon attempting to clarify the estimated departure time for the flight from CWL (confusion as to whether it was 1000 local or zulu), we were informed that it would be airborne in 10 minutes and therefore more or less on time. Yet only 2 minutes before we had spoken to them on the phone and told to check our telex messages and to inform the pax of the delay.
And we're supposedly in the 'loop'.
