In total there should be 4219 seats available each way. Total of 8438 seats which should give the airport a big boost for the month of March.

And yet the airport are still showing Eastwind Capital Partners Inc!

How embarrassing…

Yeah idk why it comes up like that. It could be the official name of Wizz Air UK for charters?

Two arrivals from Vienna next Wednesday, shown on CWL board as Royal Air Force, the airline code RR is in fact the code for BUZZ the Ryanair Polish airline, the RAF code is RRR, must be the flights for the World Cup match. The airport should really check these things.

 

[geoff]

I wonder if any of the staff at CWL look at this site, 3 departures on 25th to Vienna still shown as being operated by the RAF, whoever is responsible for making entries on the Arrivals and Departures boards need to get their act together.

Maybe email the airport to point out the error?

 

[geoff]

I have received a reply from the duty manager at CWL, who is passing my email on to the relevant department.

 

[MrFenner]

On the back of the one-off VIE flights from Ryanair, if one wanted a quick sightseeing 22hr trip to Vienna (beautiful city may I add) then it's still available for later this week for as little as £37.98!

Just my tuppence worth

According to a post on Facebook we might see 1 or 2 Virgin A350s conducting fan charters to the World Cup alongside Qatar Airways A350s and 787s.

The football flights will certainly help the airports November passenger figures.

Yep I should be a good extra 3000 too 4000 passengers maybe even more.

 

[geoff]

Five wide bodied flights on Sunday20th to Qatar, 3 Qatar Airways, 1 Virgin and one World to Fly, it will be nice to see the airport busy,13 departures in total.

 

[MrFenner]

A7-ALY is currently en-route from DOH

It’s due to depart CWL at 1500 with the team on board!

 

[Jerry]

The departures to Doha in Qatar on the 20th
VS65 08.00 Virgin Atlantic
QR735 09.00 Qatar Airways
WPT975 11.00 WPT
QR7499 13.00 Qatar Airways
QR7465 15.00 Qatar Airways

I wonder if this will be the most wide body flights with passengers on that have departed CWL in a single day?
