Sorry, the info I gave was for August. A 738 will be based in GLA until the end of July. This will be one of the C-reg 738's which will then be based at LGW from the beginning of August onwards.
As for ARN, there are no aircraft based there - all flights will be operated by LGW based aircraft!

Can anyone explain the logic behind the MD83 and 733 swap today resulting in Newmarket's Durham-Verona departing 4 hours late?
The MD83 was due to position in from Stockholm and then as it approached the UK the decision was taken to divert it to East Midlands and then do their Zakynthos flight (and back to Bristol) while Durham has to wait for the 733 to arrive from Zakynthos to EMA and then come up empty.

EMA only had a delay of an hour because of it, where as it could have been 3 hours, so Im guessing it cut delays overall more than it would do, if it carried on its normal routes, was a nice suprise at EMA mind you

Exeter had worse delay. Should have departed to Naples at 1000 on 22nd, eventually departed 0430 on 23rd on a subbed Air Italy B734. Not happy punters to say the least.

Of course any similarities between Viking's operation and that of the defunct XL (UK division) are purely co-incidental.

Methinks that Noel has had a lucky escape.
He is probably a much relieved person this weekend !

Viking at Bristol

Anyone know why alot of fights have been removed from the program from Bristol in October.

They were operating Crete / Kos etc but now no Greek flights in October unless of course all the seats have been sold - which i doubt.

Anyone with any news much appreciated

October flights

Maybe just a gradual end of season run down as often happens at that time of the year

Maybe

Just odd that last week there was a weekly crete and kos flight throught the whole of october and now they have all gone.

Can understand a reduction but looks like they have wiped out the whole of october for these routes and cut quite a few others. The corfu flight appears to finish end of August !!
