Kwacky there was a crew, an aircraft and decent visibility simple as that. My personal opinion is they over booked the flight this morning when last night's flight was cancelled as without going into all the details there was a lot of cock ups in the rebooking process. I believe they are using the weather as an excuse in my case. As I say there is a crew, an aircraft and a clear runway and other flights taking off.

I'm pretty pissed off tbh so not spending my day arguing with you about it as it's not helping in anyway. I bet your one of those people who like to say I told you so too, which never helps (gah)

I'm not arguing, I'm simply giving a view. Having lived with an air hostess I know what goes on and how much of a PITA these changes are and the knock on effects it has. It'll take them days to get back to the regular flight patterns.

I thought my insight and an alternative view would be of benefit.

It's obviously a conspiracy against some people but not others.

How's Germany?

Ha ha this thread gave me a chuckle this morning :) anyway, still here in Ipswich continuing my induction / training etc, nice bunch of people, one guy has a big full on knee down shot of Rossi on his desk top, so we chatted for ages on the initial walk around meeting lol.
Day two today, get into some nitty gritty, another long day I expect, but it's funny being new, you want to know everything so quickly, as before I knew my stuff inside out, now on a massive learning curve to understand it all again.
