China Delays

The delays caused by the Mainland were getting worse and worse everyday. Traffic going to Shanghai had been delayed for hours everyday. Overfly traffic had to divert to HKG due to excessive holding. Traffic going ZUUU or ZUCK had been delayed for hours everyday too. You had to wait for hours for the time slot on the BEKOL route. The mid-night European flights had been delayed for hours everyday. I wondered it would be better to route via the Bangkok airspace into Europe. What can we do about this situation? How long do we have to suffer? Finally, my salute to the HK ATC staff for the pains caused by the Mainland.

Well, sadly thats above my fuel hedging pay grade, which is probably why those geniuses on the upper floors have done nothing about it!!

No discretion!

I'll take that bet, wrong crwkunt! It left 3hr 27 mins late on Monday 4th this week when Bekol delays meant that the Crew had to be replaced as they rightly called time.
