Hi all,

As I couldn't get a night flight to Dalaman on the day I wanted from BHX, I flew out from LHR on Thursday night. Flew on a rammed to the gills TC-JTL A321 and then onwards on an equally rammed TC-JHC Star Alliance 738.
Although the A321 was brand spanking new, it was uncomfortable and for a 6 footer like me, not the best ride I've had.
The 738 on the other hand was a joy for legroom and a much better ride.
My point is, I hope they keep to the 738 at BHX, add a night flight to IST, then that would make me a happy chappy indeed.

One thing that Turkish have done the last three times I have flown with them this year, is change my seat at the gate.
Was due to fly IST-LHR back in March on a 77W. Got to the gate and they'd changed my seat and it was TC-JIZ...an A332. They did it yesterday too...was changed from a window to an aisle and there was nothing I could do about it.
They do advise that they can do this when you choose your seat, but the last three times is a bit much.
I tried every combination to fly out of BHX, but nothing worked for me but the LHR one.
Anyways, back to LHR on Monday.....the joys of the M40.

Afternoon all

Karl

All checked in for my flight to Sydney from Manchester via Heathrow. Been waiting for this trip for nearly a year and now tomorrow I'll finally head to Australia and New Zealand!

survived a redundancy scenario where I work for the 3rd time. Now it looks likely I will get to cover work for 2 other teams.. Pretty please for a payrise? That would be a no and so stay on the min wage.
Live in Market Bosworth and take each day as it comes......
Well it looks like I'm off to Australia and New Zealand next year! Booked with BA from Manchester via Heathrow with a stop in Singapore and returning with Air New Zealand and BA via LAX to Heathrow. Will circumnavigate the globe and be my first trans-Pacific flight. First long haul flight with BA as well and of course Air NZ.
15 years at the same company was reached the weekend before last. Not sure how they will mark the occasion apart from the compulsory payirse to minimum wage (1st rise for 2 years; i was 15% above it back then!)
