Spotting Movements Log & Heads Up

[The Pole]

Jet2 Airbus A321, G-HLYB positioned in from Manchester at 10:00 as EXS049A to operate today’s delayed Malta rotation and will position back to Manchester at 20:00 as EXS048A.

We now also have Airbus A321Neo, G-HLYI Due to position in at 12:35 from Manchester as EXS042A.

Did the 2nd Airbus arrive? FR24 states not known and can't see any movements after that?

Looks like it never came, FR shows it has been on the ground at Manchester for the last 26 hours.

No the flight plan was cancelled as it was required.

 

[Finger66]

Still good to see regular Airbus replacements appearing though which probably puts to bed any myths around LBA ops for them. Admittedly the last 2 visits have been CEOs rather than NEOs.
Perhaps some early training and pre-handling going on..............

Yesterday Ryanair’s EI-DWW swapped out for SP-RKR on the away based FR1504/1503 Gdańsk rotation
G-GDFS performed a test flight yesterday, with it now being out of long-term maintenance, I’d say it’s most likely G-JZHV has taken its place
