Vueling

It was on stand just over an hour. It departed at 17.18 to BCN as YLG4202. Don't know the reason why it was here.

It was suggested elsewhere that it was bringing in 70 railway workers.

Not the foggiest to be fair. It was down as a charter inbound and a positioning flight outbound. Apart from that a mystery maybe a repatriation flight ‍

There is a new factory being built near Newport to manufacture trains and I believe that a Spanish company is behind the scheme. Perhaps it was something todo with that.

If these workers are going to be regularly coming back and forth then maybe we'll see Vueling launch a route to Seville!

The new train making factory that will provide jobs for hundreds

A drone was used to capture the latest pictures of work inside the factory

As nice as that would be they are probably more likely to use the ryanair service from BRS!

I imagine once things get moving most of the employees will be employed locally. Any regular travellers will be nowhere near enough to support a regular route.

Was supposed to be heading to ALC on a Wednesday in August, but looks as though that will now be cancelled (although no email received yet).

Any one know what the pax figure was like.

Nice to see them using an A321 today and that they will be using an A321 on all the Palma flights when they start in August. N idea of the load today though.

91 apparently.

With the 14 day isolation back again from Spain. Has any one heard if Vueling are going to keep flights going. The longer it goes on then it will be next to nothing passenger wise I asked the question as they operated to Spain a few times so they would have to get them back.

 

[Seasider]

They don't have to get them back as they are not a tour company - flight only.

 

[Jerry]

Flights are still onsale at the moment.

 

[aviatorconcorde]

Palma is still free to operate.

 

[Jerry]

Looks like in October alicante will go 3 weekly Malaga 1 weekly and majorca 1 weekly.

 

[Jerry]

I've noticed that Vueling have been using the A321 for the PMI flight since it restarted.

According to their app Vueling won't be operating Malaga in November and December it'll be 1 weekly on a Saturday in October and then resume 2 weekly Tuesday and Saturday in January.
Alicante remains 3 weekly Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday.
