Noticed it passing my window, now the only active BA retrojet.

Anyone know the reason for this departure today?
FR8867 to FMM @ 1330 ?

Also Air 7 B738 from Munich and Eastern E170 from Ingolstadt. Additionally, LH has been all A321 for the last few days.

Thanks F! I bet LH's prices have been through the roof the last few days?

It’s a bit crazy though because LH could have put A350’s on the route and be guaranteed to sell every seat this week. Always wonder why airlines don’t really do that at times of short term exponential demand.

I think LH is 321 for rest of the month and majority of July

There's not much difference in capacity now between A321 and A350/787-8. The A321 packs everyone in but the J on the bigger planes takes up much more space

A few things from the past week

Canada jetlines A320-214SL C-GJLQ, operating for Corendon Dutch Airlines, rolling on 23 with the Tartan Army to Stuttgart today.

And finally, one without a football connection, Falcon 900 N610RL visited from White Plains for a few days, seen taxiing out for its return back across the pond.
