UK Repatriation flights


Recommended Posts

Posted

 

In light of unfortunate recent events, Fly UK is supporting with the virtual repatriation efforts of UK holiday makers.

Due to the way Fly UK schedules its aircraft for normal daily operations, we have limited airframe availability however we have been able to offer some overnight flight support from our Manchester and London fleet. Flights can be found in the search function under FL9000 - FL9015 or by selecting the Charter route type option.

Summary of routes covered

Manchester - Palma (B788), Alicante (A320), Ibiza (A320), Malaga (A320)
Gatwick - Palma (B748), Menorca (A321), Ibiza (B777), Malaga (A321)

Ad Hoc is always a good excuse to fetch in some of the heavy machinery! 

It was interesting this morning seeing the TC A321 based in Cardiff departing under the Zap callsign. Seems the wet leases didn't hang around.

Strangest one appears to be a Malaysian A380 brought into Manchester to support.

Is it bad I'm hoping for some interesting types to appear in CWL right now? Though we DO have a C40 in currently. 

Saying that, I've just looked at the CWL boards. It looks like the wet leases are running as normal but under Titan.
