I take it you are referring to the ex MAN flight.

Easy appear to have had problems with both MAN based aircraft today.

The aircraft operating EZY1998 due at 14:25 from Malta, is expected tomorrow at 06:00.

yes, it was from manchester
so what happens...do they just have to claim off insurance then?

they weren't given any information & the only other flight avail was monarch at £600 so they're currently looking like they're not going to be able to get away at all. can they just cancel like this? never heard of it happening before

Maybe its a lack of crew. One of last weeks flights to PFO was cancelled at short notice.

I assume they were told at check-in that the flight was cancelled without further explanation.
