Manchester: Weather & Technical Diversions, Delays & Cancellations

[Land23R]

Not sure what factors were at play but I suppose the best to be said is that at least it operated.

Isn't the last flight out of MAN tomorrow, Tuesday, after 32 years of the service?
Looks to be a decent load too.

I don't recollect thick fog being forecast last night?

American 788 N811AB operating AA208 (ORD--DUB) diverted in around 8am today due to high winds.

 

[David_itl]

FR663 is on it's ways in. EI-DWL - it's the BHX-DUB flight Number of aircraft holding at DUB including EI124 EI-LAX and DL154 N704X

 

[David_itl]

N704X just landed here. 3 Ryanair heading towards LPL/MAN

 

[Scottie Dog]

FR STN/DUB looks yo be for us.

 

[BlueManc]

Just took the LHR-GLA shuttle. G-MEDL SHT6L

 

[David_itl]

Odd. Meant to be no more diversions coming here unless medical.

BE4513 BEE9HD G-FBJE CWL-GLA maybe?

 

[David_itl]

QTR736T QR17 A7-BCQ given up on DUB and going where?

 

[Land23R]

After levelling at 21000 briefly, it looked as if QR could be coming here, but he's now climbed above 34000 passing MAN

 

[BlueManc]

There's times I'm sure London Mil reach for the QRA phone just in case! Where's QR going next? Barrow?

 

[Ginga]

Could still be MAN bound!
Looks to be following TOM3MW which is diverting in from GLA

 

[David_itl]

BE1494 / BEE2KJ G-FLBD DUS-LBA arrived earlier.

 

[BlueManc]

Think we're done for now. 10 diverts quite a reasonable effort considering the building site that MAN currently is. Shame the MD11F that overshot DSA gave up and is heading AMS way.

 

[David_itl]

I've got 9 divs today?

[BlueManc]

LS776 / EXS77D B738 G-GDFC ALC-EDI arr 1419

 

[BlueManc]

VS22 IAD-LHR diverted in 0608. Didn't bother holding at LHR (fog delays). I think this is the first fog related LHR div since Dec 2016!! Air China 777 !

 

[mullion]

AZA218 EI-RNA an EMB-190 has just landed on divert from LCY

 

[Land23R]

The No divs notam that was in force for 5 days due shutdown of the fuel hydrant system was duly removed and not renewed, and I gather from the LBA thread that a BA and a JE diverted to MAN yesterday morning.

 

[David_itl]

DUB currently with a radar failure. Presumably their heavies may go to SNN but you never know,..
