Just read a post on another rather popular airline forum claiming that there was some serious congestion issues at EDI today. 5 737s waiting on the taxiway for a stand at one point. One of Uniteds flights was also severely impacted waiting a reported 40 mins for a stand. As much as I applaud the me...

I would hope as more aircraft come into the fleet they can return to a Friday/Saturday operation, for a full 14 nights, rather than the 13/17 they have just now with the W operation.

And as I typed this, the survey email came through...

And FWIW, flights from EDI are on sale for next April...

With more a/c deliveries due, hopefully will see that happen rather truncating the schedules like this year.

The pessimist in me remains doubtful, but Virgin can't be happy with the seemingly constant delays for operational reasons beyond their control.

Crew hearing whispers next year will see an April return to GLA.

Obviously first weekend of the holidays, but Saturday's flight was 392, plus 3 babies. Without opening any cans of worms, the ontime inbound had a 20min+ wait for a stand, and then baggage / apparant staffing issues, led to a delay of 1hr 40 Last year's flights we were in Upper - was never sure if a...

Virgin Atlantic may be starting MCO in June next year but with an A350-1000 not a 330. Also TUI is operating four flights EDI-MLB June and July 2023; I thought this had been canned but not according toSimply Flying website and EDI. All in all then busy days ahead next summer with many wide bodies: ...

We flew out on the 2nd (You allow Edi trip reports Clive? ;) :lol: ) and it was pretty chaotic. The baggage belt failed, so it was moving one bag per time, for four or five bags, then stopped for five / ten minutes, and repeat. EDI staff came through, and stopped check-in for 50 minutes to clear a b...

Obviously pretty disappointed to see VS move away from GLA. Being in Perth, it is quicker to get to EDI, but we've always preferred GLA with it being a better airport, and always opted to use it, even when flying somewhere requiring a connection we could make ex-EDI. We are a booking moved over from...

So, this is where you all went. It's a pity that the old site has gone, I used to like reading back through old trip reports I'd put up. Despite regularly checking in on the old website, it's been a while since I've had the time to sit and do one of my trip reports. It takes a bit of time to go thro...
