Ventured over to Sat 2 at Stansted on my break to see what the pax were looking like after getting off the inbounds. Never seen such a long que outside the toilets or so many green looking people! Guess that Schipol METAR was why we cancelled our AMS this afternoon! Mid afternoon AMS-STN had a 2100Z slot out of AMS! Had another aircraft stuck in LGW, and the full cost lot seem to have nabbed all the coaches in that neck of the woods!
Interesting array of BA 74's and 777's on the cargo apron at EGSS as well, and the worlds biggest supply of coaches down the bus station taking all the punters back to EGLL and EGKK.
Passengers were not happy at the delay to their bags coming up to reclaim - I think the 80mph winds blowing across the ramp is a reasonable reason as to why.
Liked the coment about noise abatement on the 1395. Wonder what the take off brief was like - "stuff what the FMC says about the N1's, I'm gonna be using full power"
