TCX848
 

TCX 848 heading from Manchester to New York has returned to Manchester after heading out over the Atlantic. Didn't declare emergency and made a safe landing. Doesn't appear to be anything too major as you'd have thought they'd have diverted to Shannon, but does anyone know what happened?

Diverted from Gatwick to Stansted...anyone know why?

Declared emergency, ran too low on fuel whilst holding for LGW so diverted to STN

Hi G-TCDY is back now STN based

No it's not.
No TCX aeroplanes are 'based' at any specific airport.
It may be there for a short while or an extended period, but it certainly isn't based anywhere.

Im sure that was what was meant, and is what is familiar to most of us. The same tends to apply to TOM etc

Once again this thread descends into another 'Spotters Forum' :ugh:

from our point of veiw at glasgowtcx is that well at gla we have our 3 x G-TCBB,LI and AN BASED 752's

Other than Spotters who is actually interested in the registration of the based Aircraft ?

Quite so. Time to send this to the spotters forum

Not flown TC before so wanted to ask if you can pre book seats on their flights from Gatwick to Gran Canaria?

Plenty of time, we don't go until March next year but I forgot to ask the Travel Agent if this is possible or not.

MTIA for any answers.:)

Just go onto the airlines website where there is plenty of info.

reserved seating
 

We offer this on all of our flights
We also have a bundle deal for customers 3 extras for the price of two e.gseats together and extra 5kg and meal free

Hope it helps

To a base registrations matter as all aircraft have different load limits , different seat config like WJAN as it has a row 1 a,b,c and other 75's dont in the tc fleet it also has no row 30 A,b,c and carries 2 less seats.

different take off weights BB has 108T limit and WJAN has 115T limit,
Plus for flight deck the ex chinese 757's have different fma's than the others
Also important for aircraft swaps ,maint,

Not quite. The offer is prebooked seats, 20kg luggage (not an extra 5kg) and a meals is free (not on longhaul).

Janey TA - I was refering to package holidays in my example as its standard 15 KG and the 3 for 2 offers an extra 5 to make it 20
but on flight only its pre- booked seats and 20 kg and meals as 20 kg is the flight only minimum.

I don`t care how good the inclusive package is, until they improve the absolutely awful and unacceptable leg room on short haul, they won`t be getting any business from me...worse flights I`ve ever had

alasdair, as you posted that on an airline forum, perhaps for the sake of clarity you should have said that then, as it isn't something the airline offer. It's offered by the TO/TA and doesn't apply to all packages that they sell.


Congratulations! Ambassador to employee :rolleyes:

im sure that was a quote from said website (albeit poorly formatted) rather than a vetbatim phrase.
