Interesting Movements 2021

[Bearsden]

Seems an awful long way to come back surely an airport closer to the destination would not have visibility restrictions?

There is only one airfield on the Faroes - the diversion choices are Keflavik, Bergen or Glasgow/Edinburgh

Similar to when bad weather is forecast at KEF and they carry fuel to get to GLA.

Smartwings B737MAX8 OK-SWB just landed having diverted back from Vagar with Hungary women football squad - a long flight dep GLA 1543 arr GLA 2058 with 3 hours 10 minutes holding over Vagar

Interestingly the aircraft has just departed as TVS435P to Punta Cana

I assume another aircraft is being positioned into Glasgow - unlikely to have gone scheduled via Copenhagen or late afternoon tomorrow out of Edinburgh (their match is late afternoon on Tuesday)
