The Jet2 FCO service this morning was a replacement to the AirBee charter to NAP, which no longer operates due to the cessation of flying by AirBee. It was not a rescue flight for XL. Incidentally FCA are operating mondays FNC flight to replace XL. NCL has lost 13 flights per week afetr the collapse of XL, with little chance of them being reinstated as passengers were from the XL group of travel companies.

Some rescue flights for XL passengers are:

14 SEP - Monarch from ZTH MON463R 2125
16 SEP - Monarch from TFS MON419R 0305
17 SEP - Monarch from PFO MON499R 1800

Most other rescue flights landed in alternative airports such as MAN and LBA, using Jet2 aircraft.
