Spectators Balcony (Spotters Corner)If you're not a professional pilot but want to discuss issues about the job, this is the best place to loiter. You won't be moved on by 'security' and there'll be plenty of experts to answer any questions.
Whens the cheapest available seat? Throughout next year? Becuase I get about £2k EMA per year + bonuses and Im thinking If I can find the cheapest date, fly out on BAW1 and come back into LHR on a T7 or something.
It's £1001 each way only if you use the service as a return. If you go one way it goes up to £3300!
I guess with so few seats it's too risky to let people fly out on it and back to LHR via 747 or 777.
Best get saving up
Like Concorde onboard an A318, the only similarity is the fact both are aircraft? No aircraft on take off in the pasenger sector is anywhere like Concorde was. Perish the thought and a flight number makes no difference!
Give the lad a break. He's 16 and wants to spend a grand he doesn't have to fly on an A318 pretending it's Concorde. Enough said I think....
I suspect that there may be a lot of flights booked JFK-LCY LHR-JFK regardless of cost. Incidentally the LGW-JFK service has already gone, before the end of the season as advertised.
I understand your point about JFK-LCY LHR-JFK but, if I may say so, I'm convinced you're wrong!
The low hassle factor (15 min check-in time afore departure) of LCY and the complete removal of the immigration hassle factor at JFK (performed at Shannon with your fellow 31 - at most - other pax, are worth their weights in gold.
Last time I went to the US from T4 - yes I know T5 is now magic but more airlines fly the pond than BAW - but it took me 40 mins in Fastrack to get through security; last time I went through LCY there was no queue and two smiling sets of searchers and friskers were in attendance.
Arrive at JFK and just walk to the taxi rank - bliss, well until you get in the cab anyway!
I would guess it is TOGA by the sounds of the engine.
Anyone know what brake setting they use on landing at LCY - I'm guessing Medium or are they allowed to use Max? Or do they use manual only for optimal control?
I saw the BA bird strike on Airliners.net, and she's gonna be kept in JFK for a while, is also believed that they may bring in the second rotation early (BA003/4)(G-EUNB).
Still full coming back.
