MON9264 from Orlando Sanford via Portsmouth (New Hampshire) due 05:35.
Looks like Boeing 757-200, G-MONJ is running quite early on her Atlantic crossing as she is now expected into Leeds at 03:50.

And is clearly needed back in LGW pronto with a 0620 position-er in the system

Interesting routing on the return leg, much shorter sector out of Sanford before a pit stop.

Guess that's where the Atlantic jetstream winds come into play!

Last nights Monarch flight from Florida looked to have flown direct from Orlando Sanford to Leeds

When I saw that it was expected around 2 hours early I wondered if it was coming back non stop.I looked at Sanford departures and it said Portsmouth.Then looked at Portsmouth website which was hopeless as it looks like the only flights in are Allegiant ones.

Is there anyway to confirm what route it did take?.

 

[Aviador]

The return flight will have been much quicker because of the jetstream so it's entirely possible it came back direct.

When I flew on 'NJ from MAN to MCO in 1992, we dropped off in Bangor for fuel. On the way back we flew direct to MAN.

Anyone know why last nights Ryanair service RYR57BQ to Malaga which was operated by by Boeing 737-800WL, EI-EVF was so badly delayed? I heard her take-off runway 14 at 01:11am. Then 50 minutes later at 02:00 heard Jet2's Boeing 737-300, G-CELI positioning out to Manchester as EXS61J...

Hi lbaspotter EI-EKP was AOG at LBA yesterday afternoon. Ryanair subsequently operated the LBA-AGP-LBA flight in reverse using a AGP based a/c EI-EVF. This obviously meant a large delay for the LBA-AGP sector.

As for G-CELI it was scheduled to operate LBA-CDG-LBA-DUS-LBA-MAN yesterday. It picked up a slight delay in CDG which resulted in the DUS flight departing off schedule. As you may well know many German airports including DUS have night curfew's which the LS347/8 sadly would break. Due to the closure Jet2 operated the flight the CGN instead and bussed the passengers from DUS which meant a rather large delay in the end.

:crazy:

It would seem that Loganair a running a charter into Leeds this evening from London Gatwick. As we have a LOG847 ETA 17:20. Looks to be night stopping as its not due back to London Gatwick until 19:00 tomorrow as LOG848.

 

[lbaspotter]

Jet2 have today used Boeing 757-200WL, G-LSAK on the EXS087 Leeds - New York shopping charter service. She looks to be opearting direct as well, so the weather/winds oevr the Atlantic Ocean must be favourable! Meanwhile Boeing 757-200WL, G-LSAC has done the Newcastle - New York EXS075 service.

Good to see the repaired Jet2 Boeing 737-800WL, G-GDFC has been given a run out this afternoon operating the EXS195/83CY Leeds-Prague-Leeds rotation.

You would have thought so, I think that's where G-GDFW had her Jet2.com stickers applied recently

Spanish Global Express EC-LNM due in around 1130 (local) from Palma and off at 1710 to Dusseldorf

Chinese Challenger B-LBL due in at around 1140 (local) from Bangor, Maine - looks to be nightstopping

The annual Leeds Diocesan 2014 Pilgrimage to Lourdes is now on sale. Looks like they have stopped using Tagney Tours as this years service from Leeds/Bradford is been chartered by Joe Walsh Tours http://www.joewalshtours.co.uk/index.php

So we may actually see a different airline operate the flights instead of been operated by Titan Airways as has happened in the past couple of years.

Outbound = Friday, July 11th 2014
Inbound = Thursday, July 17th 2014
