It looks like the 767 on the SFB this morning. Does anyone know if they are using that all week or rotating it with the 757.

We flew out on Saturday March 1st on the 767 non stop but back on the 757-200 Saturday just gone. Again, non stop. It seems they are alternating them for some reason. Beware of the premium economy scam. We booked this but got economy seats, cramped and minimum seat pitch. We did this same route in September with the other 767 (NEOS) which had extra legroom:ugh:

My back's still aching:*

Service on board was fine, except our overhead screen on the way back wasn't working. Wanted to sleep anyway and the films were old. Food was ok, crew were friendly and efficient.
Seating wise, they were cramped and narrow on both the 767 and 757 and the seat pitch was 30 or 31" not the 36" we had last year.
I am guessing but the 767 configured for the GLA-SFB comes in May in time for the summer season

Outbound was around 9.5 hours doing the scenic route over Canada but only 8 hours inbound thanks to the tailwinds. If you get the 757 going out, a fuel stop in Bangor will add another hour on to the trip. By June I am sure it will be the reconfigured 767 though (that's what the stewardess told me)

hope the stewardess is correct coz when we booked our seat it is defo the 767 but economy seating says 30" or £25 a head for a P.E seat 34" and business is 50" so i think i will resign myself to the fact am going to be cramped anything else will be a bonus.So to me it sounds as though al be on the same 767 you were on:ugh:
