+1 RUK aircraft for S26, making 19 based.

Further additional aircraft planned for S27 under current agreement making total 20 based aircraft.

The T3 expansion and improvements can’t come quick enough in that case!
With BA moving over to T2 soon, that gives Ryanair 2 additional stands overnight then.

When is the reconfiguration of stands 16 & 17 planned for?

Stand 16/17 reconfiguration likely to be next spring now, priority is now with stands 61/62 and 29/31 reconfiguration works - due to complete late October. Once works are complete stand 62 will become max code C aircraft & 61 will become code E / 61L/R code C. 29/31 also both become code C.

I thought stand 62 had to go for the dual taxiway. Is that not the case

62 is indeed much reduced in size going from code F to code C. 63-68 removed. (69 was removed last month).

Check in at T1 from tomorrow and can use all T1 facilities. Going to be plenty late to gate and missing flights especially as the furthest point passengers can go to is the smoking area.

Passengers for Ryanair shouldn’t be going any further than beyond the duty free. Signs are in place to turn left after duty free towards T3 via the southern front corridor.
Of course it’s inevitable that some passengers will miss this info and continue into T1 departures area.

Thought I saw a BBJ over Stockport and checked FR24 to see that it was B737-700 SP-RUM on this mornings Katowice flight.

Anyone know what's the deal with this unit? Only one in fleet and 26 years old, way past the oldest 738. Some sort of affection or attachment by the engineers?

At one point used spend most of its time on training flights or charters as EI-SEV from EMA
