Manchester Departures

[TIMUK]

Just clocking them and so far so good, well last week the Monarch flight left dead on 23.30 and it's looking good for tonights departure

Not like last year were I paid extra to fly 3 hours earlier on a Jumbo and the idiot pilot missed his slot so we flew 3 hours later

Language Timothy

[TIMUK]

It's just left @ 23.40 that will do me next week

[kazza1]

Thats good,we too on the same flight 11/08/2006!!!

[Colette]

Tim I get the feeling you cannot wait to get on the plane

[Diane Rigby]

We went on this flight on 21/7 returned on 5/8. Both outgoing and return were on time. Although we didn't pay for a meal we were given one. Lets hope they stay on time for your flight. Di.

[TIMUK]

Tim I get the feeling you cannot wait to get on the plane

You are feeling right aswell Colette

Can't ruddy wait after the sh!t year I've had, I think this is our last Holiday this time or so I've been told

Diane thanks for the feedback on the flight, how did you know we never got meals .......must be that particular flight ....I got meals last year with ******** but this year we booked through *********and have no meal, though we will be taking sarnies onboard I'm not really worried about eating though Emma likes the meal

[Diane Rigby]

Timuk, have been with several companies and have never booked a meal with any of them but have always been offered one. I have quite a few friends who have also never paid for meals but have always got one. I do feel sorry for people who have paid thought, they could have saved themselves £12 each. We always have a meal at the airport on the way out just incase we don't get any food and pack sarnies on the way back and crisps etc (always best to be prepared, I was in the Brownies you know). I am sure you will have a good flight and a great holiday. Di.

[TIMUK]

Hello Diane

Well you have just peeeved me off when you haven't been paying for a meal but have been getting one lol

Fair play to you

Well we take sarnies and when we are on the way home we spend the last evening in the 3bells and Memhet makes us sandwiches for the return leg home

Thanks again Diane

PS. The £12.00 each will go towards the All Inclusive Boat trip in Turkey

[TIMUK]

Latest update given the recent events regarding Manchester airport as of 4.41 of today

All flights are being severely delayed.

But the only flights from the airport to have been cancelled are those BMI and BA flights destined for Heathrow.

All other flights are operating with delays of between 40-90 minutes. There are large queues to get through security, so passengers are advised to arrive as early as possible.

Shops have been closed in the departure lounge because of luggage restrictions.

An airport spokesman said: "It's as normal as it can be under the circumstances. Passengers should travel as normal, expect some disruption and follow the instructions we are giving them."

Virgin Trains said it was accepting passengers with airline tickets between Manchester and London.

[TIMUK]

Emma is gutted that she can't buy her perfume on the way out but she realises the safety aspect.

Well done to the Police and Security Service's for making our flights safer.

Enquirer thankyou for the update

[Colette]

Can you not buy perfume on the plane?

[TIMUK]

Knowing Emma Colette it will not be the stuff she wants

Maybe they will allow Duty Free shops to be open tomorrow night, who knows

All this mider and I'm sat here can't wait to go now, a little scare isn't putting me off what-so-ever

Look at my T-Shirt I got on

PS. I've packed my camera so these were taken by the moby phone

[Colette]

is duty free closed at the min then? surely perfume could be taken out of the box? mind you it could be replaced with anything so yeah they prob are closed

God waffled that much there I answered my own question lol

Have a brill time Tim and Sue and Emma x

[TIMUK]

They said it was closed earlier Colette but I've stopped watching the news now as I don't want to get down over it all

Thankyou Colette I'm sure we will enjoy the Holiday
