Conspiracy theorists would have a field day about OW at MAN as today's CX flight was also cancelled. A passenger was told it was due to a typhoon in HKK. Strange, but the CX 255 landed at LHR at 06.21 apparently and the CX 257 due to arrive early at 14.50.
And no suggestions please about low loads or poor yields. Pax figures on another site showed Saturday's flight had 335 inbound and 340 out. Fancy that, just 5 empty seats. And Spanners has commented previously about the amount of freight carried.
