The VS B744 had subbed for the usual aircraft, but I don`t know what the AN124 was for other than it came in last night

I was on the VS 744 - it was a replacement aircraft for Honey Pie on VS076 from Orlando. It was flown into MCO yesterday for the flight and they were evry short of cabin crew for the flight - had the minimum of 12 on board, 6 of whom had to drive up from Miami for the flight at very short notice.

Anyone know what happened to cause Honey Pie not to operate VS075 outbound MAN - MCO on 18 March?

vS 075 (HP) did operate 18th 400 was brought up to operate on 19th due crew shortage as rostered crew poached for proving flight on TW
