The notice above the boarding gate must have shown the destination and flight number as DUS.
Is it possible the flight deck thought they were going to EDI and the cabin thought the destination was DUS? If so that's an incredible breakdown in briefing and crew co-operation.
Diffident, never not heard a welcome speech? I take it you never fly Ryanair then?
Gonna be some red faces over this one!
