Plenty of Wizz flights due to land at Luton before midnight end up 2 or 3 hours late... would an A320 due to land at 23:00 at SEN still be welcome at 02:00 or would it have to divert ?

Most Wizz flights arrive and depart from Luton before midnight. The Wizz UK W9 flights often arrive in the early hours, having completed three rotations during the 24hr period. |

Now I’m pretty sure most of you are into hop-hip and garage so here’s your chance to get down with the kids and visit the airport at the same time. The Southend City Festival is coming to the airport!

Could be a long walk from the station and not the 100 steps claimed.
|
The comms people have been straight on social media this evening for the arrival of one single flight, Sky Express which should have gone into LHR earlier. Overkill perhaps, although equally it could be read as implying more is coming. Let’s see.

The G280 from Baku would be a little more exciting for the spotters. |
Greeks at SEN

This was planned and diverted due to the chaos at LHR - well done sky express! |
A case of Southend was the only airport prepared to handle them, which is a surprise, as I think it was reported here that SEN won’t handle London City diversions.

Sufficient time to let Pax know their ATH flight is still running (good) and is now a late evening flight from another London airport (a good result for most folk no doubt) Well done SEN and SYK EXP for showing some foresight... From London Southend Airport Air Traffic Control - Fantastic to welcome a first visit of Greek airline SKY Express this evening. Due to the well advertised issues at some other London airports this lovely new Airbus 320 NEO arrived direct from Athens this evening, replacing its usual London Heathrow service and returned after turnaround. Landed at 21.45pm, A320 SX-CRE from Athens, parking stand 5 and departed at 22.55pm. Video - SEN SKY EXP A320N |

Departs 13.10 back to BERGAN
|
EasyJet seemed to have dropped Monday’s PMI flight for the rest of the season.
|
Or put another way, 33% of Mondays flights. I don’t know why SEN is struggling when there has been such a massive rebound everywhere else. Airport of last resort is not a good position to be in. SEN is lucky not to have Peel as the owners, as the writing is on the wall if things don’t change soon.

50% or are you including the ASL Cargo flight?
Looking at forward booking on the route on other days probably a wise commercial move, have your £25 back and make the flying program more resilient. |

The aviation industry is wildly off-kilter since the pandemic. While hubs like Heathrow and Gatwick are cancelling flights, Southend has spare capacity and is desperate for more business. |
