A321 G-MEDL has just departed - reported for Madrid

It's my understanding that this is for further storage, and that others may also be headed there.

A321 G-MEDF has just departed for Madrid (ATUK you'll recall flying on 'DF on 5 March)

Alex Cruz replaced by Sean Doyle with immediate effect.

Perhaps this may be the start of better working relations, service and rebuilding faith and trust in a good British company. IMHO smacks of the times Sir Colin Marshall joined from Avis to build a better company than the old adage “ you’re honoured to be on board”.

Possibly... or just more streamlining ? His replacement is simply shifting back to BA after being IAG's 'man in Dublin' for the past couple of years.

I certainly do. Oh to be back in NCE again ( pre Covid) of course.

A little bit more movement today. EUXJ has been moved to stand 22, presumably awaiting a crew from LHR to come and collect. 'XK was powered up on the APU this afternoon, and control surfaces were being tested by a ground crew. This is the one remaining on Yankee.

Apparently the A321s that have been flown to Madrid, especially the G-MED aircraft will have their exclusive business class removed and be reconfigured, possibly into all Economy

Sad to see all the Airbii parked up at GLA last night.

G-EUXJ about to depart

'XC and 'XK both outside the hangar yesterday afternoon, so likely candidates to be the next departures. Six now remaining on 81/82, and three over at 37-40.

G-EUXK departed today to Madrid as BAW9275

The two 'old' A321s which weren't stored at GLA G-EUXI & G-MEDN were positioned from Heathrow to Madrid on 17 Oct & 16 Oct respectively

November schedule has been updated, now showing 5 daily to LHR compared to 7 daily that was being planned. This is still an increase of 1 flight per day compared to current schedule.
