Southend-2
STN is closed tonight and Titan need the aircraft for a positioning flight in the early hours of tomorrow morning. No SEN runway works tonight (that is done on a '12 days on 2 days off' basis, this being one of the 2 days off) so flying it into SEN is the answer.

There was a B757 flight into SEN last summer (one of the re-routed flights due to LTN night restrictions) that brought in something over 100 passengers I believe. The 752 is a good performer off SEN's runway.

Noticed that the Akureyri flights have all been operated by Titan A321 G -POWN specifically since the charters were started back in November
Having said that though , it could be that they are on the 757 for the last couple of months , as the flights are being operated from Isle of Man , Jersey , Inverness and Southend which may indeed require a different performance aircraft

I was looking at a weekend in Groningen and noticed the schedule has been revised for summer, it’s now between 1 and 2 daily so a big decrease on Summer 2018. It also no longer spends the night over there. Both Stobart ATRs will fly out after the EZY/FR rush around 8am and finish the day around 9pm before the rest.

I don't know about AP's plans but I've visited Groningen several times over the past few years. I can recommend the NH Hotel de Ville and its excellent restaurant or the Asgard which is a slightly quirky boutique hotel. It really is a good place to visit for a weekend - you should try it.

Looks like Essexman has deleted their post...and good. Completely idiotic. I didn’t realise going to Groningen was so outrageous. But I’m not really clear why so...is it the lack of Disneyland? Lack of all inclusive beach resorts?
Thanks for the suggestions EF

Those would definitely be sensible questions if you had a Russian accent, if someone got poisoned with unusual neurotoxins during your the second of your 4 hour visits on consecutive days, and if you'd said that all your friends has been telling you that you have to go there to climb up the 260 steps of the 97m Martinitoren to see the 62 bells, including one with a bullet hole.
For any doubters: it's a seriously nice place. I recommend it. It's like other nice places in NL but potentially easier to get to, cheaper and less touristy.

"I was looking at a weekend in Groningen "
Amazing? I'm astonished - most of the people who live there can't wait for the weekend to go somewhere with a bit of life in my experience........ worse than Stavanger or Aberdeen
