Thank you Scottie Dog. As they say....everyday is a school day. :) Great find KARFA. (y)

Is A6-EUX the only ex 615 seater that has been configured to the new 3 class with premium economy? There used to be a fantastic spreadsheet with detailed information on the EK fleet, sadly no longer available as that would have answered my question. Interesting to note the new class that BHX...

It's currently Hajj season which means entry into Saudia Arabia or Mecca and Madinah to be exact is restricted. This may also explain the lower inbound load. It's similar to the early days of a new charter service where outbound loads are higher. If I'm correct, the Hajj will be over in two...

One of Villa or Nottingham Forest to go through to the final on 20th May. For both sets of fans BHX is their local airport as far easyJet, Pegasus and Turkish are concerned.

Next Wednesday's EK39 will be the newly configured 569 seater A380 with premium economy. Source: aeroroutes. https://www.aeroroutes.com/eng/260430-ekmay26388k

Due to operate Sunday's SV253 at the time of posting.

Well it did turn a couple of weeks ago, so finger crossed we see this fantastic colour scheme again. This glorious weather and HZ-ARF on approach is a worth a trip to Sheldon Country Park but I have football. :unsure:

Flightradar is showing tomorrow's Saudia is due to be operated by HZ-ARF in the 'Welcome to Arabia' livery. As ever with FR24, subject to change.

Flightradar may provide some insight. Do remember there can be glitches here or there, however, in the main I find it can be mostly accurate. Try this link to view the routing of the flight: https://www.flightradar24.com/data/flights/fr2912#3e813278 There is a playback feature too. First...

May I suggest a browse on sites such as Aerolopa or seatguru to check seating configurations for Saudia 77Ws. It's worth remembering that currently neither Gatwick or Manchester see the 77W and both are served with a higher frequency. In summary, I think BHX is doing just fine with 787 for now...

A very good airline and glad they are at BHX with steady growth. While they are low cost, they don't feel ultra low cost onboard. I like their pricing too. Base fare gives you 3kg luggage, however for £20 more you now have 3kg + 7kg cabin bag + 20kg checked bag which is not bad at all compared...

Silkway B744F 4K-BCI from Baku on approach to R33.

PIA will delay their return due to lack of planes. I would surprised if they cancelled any routes to the UK. I would guess it's Brussels Airlines not returning for S26?

If you do a Google search for "Nick Barton" and "Tom Screen" there is a photo of both standing at the launch of the easyJet base. Does that count?

My only issue is when people post such reports as hard facts. It's data taken from sites such as OAG with one stop routings between city pairs. This is only accurate if the journey started at the local airport. As the previous posts have mentioned already, the report does not capture the...
