I flew (as a passenger!) Bournemouth to Prestwick on Tuesday and my flight was delayed for 3 and a half hours due to "operational reasons", and the aircraft that eventually took us home seemed to be of Italian origin. Does anyone have access to information as to what the "operational reasons" were? There was an AN-22 at Prestwick when I landed and I thought I saw an engine being loaded on to it. Likely to be linked?
