Odd to see a TCX A321 just left GLA for BHX... Every little moment is going to be scrutinised isn't it. |
Guys let’s be semi sensitive towards the thousands of uk staff who will face a horrible few months in the event that things go t**s up as is looking likely. Flight deck and crew will likely find alternative employment fairly easily, however probably not where they want to work but ground based staff of all descriptions will not easily find other similar paid employment. We know things are ropey, everyone has admitted it, however the random aircraft movements around Europe currently could easily be just that, random movements. Equally they could be something to do with plans being put in place by the caa, who knows and who cares. If TC go we will all find out which movements are for caa and which aren’t. Its worth keeping in mind that other things are also happening within aviation, there’s a French airline just going south also so some movements could be to do with that. Chin up all involved. Sadly nobody here can influence the outcome either way. I for one am hoping for the best, I’m due on a charter flight in October ;) cs |
THOMAS COOK
Well as we are all hoping that Thomas Cook doesn't go bust the deadline line seems to be tonight and the feeling is if you don't have a deal in place tonight with the money guaranteed then it's good bye Thomas Cook.
Now things have started to move on with flights positioning for recover flights just like Monarch collapse Enroute to Manchester is 9M-MNF A380 due around 0030hrs tonight no other reason for this aircraft to operate empty into Manchester other than to cover TCX flights Enroute to Shannon is a Eastern B763 N703KW along with 2 others already on the ground Currently sat at CDG is 9H-MIP A380 HiFly was due into LGW but went to CDG at last minute Manchester and Gatwick are full overnight with based aircraft especially MAN with building work going on believe me after 1am your lucky to find parking spots for aircraft now MAN and Gatwick will be the two main airports for relief flights and bases for aircraft operating these but until flights actually start it makes sense to park aircraft within a hours flight of MAN and LGW then position out and collect passengers and return to MAN or LGW or even call in on outward flight quick stop and go. |

It was originally listed as bound for LGW then changed its destination mid flight.

Why is that odd? Positioning to cover for another flight?
Every little moment is going to be scrutinised isn't it. Which flight at BHX did you have in mind? If you don't want to be involved in the analysis, there is no pressure to post/comment |

I am wondering where this might leave the caa/atol and the air travel trust. The figures being banded around are about £170million in the trust currently, plus a further insured £400million (whether self-insured by government is unclear)
Going to be hard to get an exact figure, however, in the event of collapse that isn't going to leave anything left going forward. I think what continues to amaze me is there must be a number of people still travelling on holidays without insurance and/or cover for airline failure. |

Odd that it hasn't occurred for the whole of summer ops and aircraft is needed to fulfil the full program starting again at 0500hrs tomorrow. Which flight at BHX did you have in mind? If you don't want to be involved in the analysis, there is no pressure to post/comment |

I have a flight booked to NY in November, booked through TC but operated by Air Tanker, I assume this will still get binned should the worst happen? Sorry, don’t wish to be insensitive, I’ve been made redundant myself in the past due to poor management so I do feel for everyone involved. I know I’ll get my money back on my credit card so it’s not a big deal for me. Just curious |
