This question will really expose my level of "sadness"' but here goes any way!
I often track flights from EMA on FlightRadar24and this morning a Thomson flight to Palma took a rather different route. It took of in the westerly direction, turned north west, flew over Stoke on Trent, continued over Liverpool, turned Westerly again, almost reached Dublin, turned and flew south westerly over Ireland...I then had to get up so stopped watching!
Does anyone know why it had to take that route and not the more usual left turn after take off and straight down South? It must have added at least 250 miles to the journey.
