[TheLocalYokel]

They've done this sort of thing before in recent years. They personalise the local airport in each tv region. There was one for Bristol Airport this week.

they advertise every year about this time. over this side its brs as the airport,over the welsh side is it Cardiff.

There was certainly another occasion within the past two or three years when KLM used at least one B 737 into and out of CWL instead of the then usual F70s. I can't recall what the occasion was though.

Incidentally, KLM Cityhopper is also operating an additional (fifth) rotation into and out of BRS on Saturday 3 and Sunday 4 June. It will be an E175. The other four rotations are the usual E190s.

Ah i wasn't sure i've only ever seen Fokkers and Embraers. I've had a check of some other airline websites and it looks like KLM are the first to plan for the weekend and i've also noticed that Air France now gives you the option of the Flybe CDG flight now whereas before it was only via AMS with KLM.

KLM have brought out a farewell Fokker livery which depicts Anthony Fokker on the tail. As CWL does see a lot of them hopefully we'll get to see it! Maybe I'll even fly on it August! The aircraft is PH-KZU.

I remember flying on a KLM Boeing 747 several years ago that bore the name Anthony H G Fokker.

According to SWAG and the airports live flight information the 21.30 E175 arrival from AMS which is also the overnight aircraft and the 06.00 departure has been cancelled.

 

[Jerry]

KLM carried 11,824 passengers in May 2017 from Cardiff Airport. Up 7% on last year.

 

[Jerry]

There will be an Orlando option available with KLM and Delta via Amsterdam from the 30th March 2018 as Delta Airlines will be starting a daily 767 300 service from MCO to AMS.

Does anyone know if there is somewhere that i can find out what aircraft I'm flying on Wednesday morning? Wanted to know if I can find out if it's Anthony Fokker livery aircarft.

 

[superking]

I know it's a Fokker 70 CWL is all Fokker for this August. That's what the seat map says. I was just wondering if there was anywhere to find out what specific aircraft will be operating the flight.

 

[superking]

I read yr post again. It depends what turns up the night before. even klm wont know till the day before only model.

 

[Jerry]

It's the last flight I'll do on a KLM Fokker as my next one will probably be November time and they'll be gone by then. Guess I'll have to keep my fingers crossed for the Anthony Fokker livery aircraft!

 

[superking]

Off to the states again jerry. I married an American from California,fresno was her city. she passed away a little while back and it hit me hard still not getting over it. Well you have a good flight both ways and for sure you will have fun and a good time over there.A tad jealous you doing it as I miss it doing what you are doing.Wont be long before married and move out there then. enjoy.

 

[Jerry]

Yeah off for 2 weeks! It's going to be great to spend some time together though most of it won't be in Portland it'll be in Reno with her grandparents and a little trip to Sonora in California to see her sisters and her mother, going to be a nice road trip. Hopefully in the future i can move out there!

Sorry about your wife you have my condolences.

 

[Jerry]

Looks like PH-KZB will be the aircraft for my last Fokker flight according to FR24. A pity i won't get a photo of the Anthony Fokker livery aircraft.

 

[Jerry]

My flight to Amsterdam is now delayed! Scheduled to depart at 7.30. Fog in Amsterdam! Looks like it's going to be a long day for me now!
