Following a lengthy runway closure at Gatwick today resulting from an incident with a Virgin B 747, numerous flights have been diverted to other airports.

So far CWL as seen Monarch A 321 G-OZBU from Funchal.

Addendum

LGW runway now seems to have re-opened around 1915 hours.

According to FR24 and BRS arrivals page TOM 6555 TFS-CWL (B 738) due CWL 1955 diverted to BRS presumably because of the strong winds.

as you say a strange one.
depends if he had a change of route some where down line,or strong head winds. flying time from cdf is about 50 minutes and already in the cruise.
better be safe than sorry i suppose.

 

[superking]

another divert into cwl from bodrum in the early hours of monday the 6th of july at 02.22
flt no ein 4793 aircraft a320. reg no ei dyn.
dont know if divert started as splash and dash.
pilots ran out of hours so still on stand.
i wonder if they had a delay down line, or just bad rostering. what a shambles if latter
feel sorry for pax. wonder if they were put up in a hotel near airport.

Two British Airways 747s diverted into CWL this morning along with a 777-200. Shannon got a couple more BA aircraft including an A380.

 

[NOSIGWX]

British Airways B789 G-ZBKI about to touch down at Cardiff from Abu Dhabi. A Heathrow diversion due to High winds. There's plenty more holding, so possibly the first of a few for Cardiff.

 

[Aviador]

Thanks NOSIGWE I guess it's one of the advantages of having the BA maintenance at Cardiff is you get to see some interesting movements from time to time.

Does anyone know why the Flybe 07.00 Dublin was cancelled this morning?

 

[Jerry]

KLM Cityhopper KL1069 delayed tonight. Scheduled arrival at 21.30 but expected arrival is 22.20. As this is the nightstopper i wonder if this will effect the 6am departure?

 

[Jerry]

Thomas Cook A320 YL-LCL went tech last night. Flown in from BHX was A320 YL-LCL to operate TCX7036 to Bourgas the flight was due to depart at 20.40 but departed at 01.06 and will arrive back at 08.28.
Also Thomas Cook A321 G-TCDV will operate TCX7042 to Reus delayed departure at 07.45 due to it not arriving from MAN until 06.50.

 

[Ray Finkle]

YL-LCL is operating from Bourgas directly into Birmingham, I guess to keep further delays to a minimum.

It was due to depart BHX for Kalamata at 07:25, this has now been delayed until 09:25.

 

[Jerry]

Seems to be a theme this weekend! Balkan Holidays Bourgas 8H5549 has been delayed today. Was scheduled at 17.20 but landed at 19.43. So figure that the return 8H5550 so depart between 20.15 and 20.30. And looking at many flights from CWL today there seems to have been a 20 to 30 mins delay on many of them from midday onwards.

 

[Jerry]

Eastern Airways flight T34095 18:30 arrival from Newcastle is cancelled. T34096 18:55 departure to Newcastle is also cancelled as a result. No information as to why.

 

[Jerry]

The Aer Lingus flight EI3298 is delayed scheduled arrival at 20.30 eta 21.30 there may well be problems at DUB with delayed departures. Estimated departure is 21.55

 

[Jerry]

VY1242 PMI-CWL delayed scheduled at 18.30 estimated at 19.25
VY1243 CWL-PMI estimated departure 20.00
BE4516 CDG-CWL delayed estimated arrival 19.35

 

[Jerry]

Eastern Airways NCL 18.30 arrival and 18.55 departure has been cancelled. Wondering if they are having aircraft problems or just not enough pax for the routes?
