Hi Guys,

Any idea what etops alternate used for this sectors?

Is KLM flying their A330 with 180mins approval?

Out of EU airspace BA to the caribbean you would see EINN LPLA TAPA as etops alternates. TAPA could be replaced with TFFR as they are on 50nm apart. This is based on 180 mins.

Thks mate.

Hence 120mins acft would be impossible?

[getjetsetgo]

Not impossible. Just means slightly higher when crossing the atlantic. Have seen it before on a first choice run. Cant remember the alternates but i know TJSJ TXKF CYYT were used. Cant remember the rest.

But planning up further north does eats up the payload .

[getjetsetgo]

Depends on how much you were planning for to start. Depending on the winds the extra time works out to be an hour or so. Your airline only has certification up to 120etops ?

[getjetsetgo]

what is you email address. will send you a chart depicting a flight with 120 mins between the caribbean and EU.

[D7 Dispatcher]

yup, we only have 120mins.
