Thanks, I wasn't assuming but wondered if this was a thing on rotation sometimes. Of course, yes it could have been an FR24 glitch.

Wasn't it a baby, they scream on any flight?

Belfast U249 G-EZGX A320

I just watched the Wizz LBA-OTP depart on FR24. I know FR24 has some anomalies but I thought this was interesting. I watched the aircraft speed up as it rolled down the runway. At the point where it was approaching its takeoff speed it appeared to rapidly lose speed from approximately 145 knots...

Not a great day today with the wind but I think we've got off lightly through the winter to be fair. Fingers crossed for a long run of disruption free flying from now on.

Blimey, shouting in your first post!? Some people will go for maybe an hour, others for the whole afternoon. Generally, the afternoons are busiest and the weekends will be the most crowded; mornings are usually quieter. As for food, well, if you’re able to do hot snacks as well as cold ones...

Not disputing any of that but it didn't seem to apply for the terminal extension. Anyway at least they're on with it which is the main thing.

The current one has windows albeit blanked out. They could have placed a privacy covering over the windows so natural light could still penetrate into the building.

I raised this point a few days ago. As the Middle Eastern carriers primarily cater to transfer rather than final-destination travellers, the majority of these routes ought to remain commercially viable.

Jet2 boss has issued an update on its bookings to Cyprus and Turkey amid the conflict in the Middle East. Chief Executive Steve Heapy said flights on these routes are becoming 'empty' due to the uncertainty caused by the ongoing conflict abroad. Demand is instead shifting to destinations such...

Tidy but disappointed about the lack of windows. Thank you for the update nonetheless.

We need more competition to stop this kind of thing from happening. Imagine where we'd be right now had Monarch survived. I think LBA would be a lot cheaper to fly from.

Didn't they want one lounge to be free of children initially?

That assuming you are travelling for work but then your driver doesnt turn up, the trains cancelled and you're shuved onto a replacement bus, then six hours later.... There are as many cons for using the train as there are for flying, the only thing the stands out that is different is the...

While I understand the focus on station to station transit times, @Jerry , looking at the headline three hour journey only tells half the story. In reality, the door to door experience for many travellers, particularly those not living within walking distance of a major city centre hub often...

People are booking later waiting out for cheaper deals.

I appreciate that the employment landscape has shifted fundamentally over the last decade. It is beyond doubt that business travel has declined, however, I remain convinced that a carrier like easyJet could successfully operate routes between Leeds and Edinburgh or Glasgow, as well as potential...

No it's not you.

If this is intended as a positive assessment of our current transport links, it is unpersuasive to say the least. This perspective implies that a rail journey exceeding five hours is a viable substitute for the efficient one hour flight services previously operated by  BMI and Eastern Airways...

We need to see government policy change to kick start domestic air travel again. High speed rail is dead so the only way now is to promote aviation again. Aircraft will continue to become cleaner and more fuel efficient. The co2 argument will deminish as time goes by. #GetUKDomesticFlightsMoving
