I'm currently in T3 waiting to pick someone up. Just noticed the VS301 has not got an arrival time and the VS18 has been cancelled.
Not the best of days for VS.

September 11th has apparently seen a huge dip in bookings, as per usual since 2001.

I wouldn't even think of avoiding it.
Its like after the London bombings, so many people said "I'll never sit upstairs at the back of a bus now". Why? That's the only place Terrorists can sit?

I was booked on VS7 on Sept 11th 2002. I was advised around a week before the flight that I was being moved to VS23 as VS7 was not going to happen that day. That flight (VS23) was less than half full. There was a definite nervous frisson during the flight.

September is a quiet time on many routes.
the LGW-MCO route ahd a few cancellations every year as yeilds are low.
Should be easier for them to be on time then! [}:)]

The VS300 to DEL on the 10th SEP had a medical emeergency and diverted to AMS.
Not sure what happened to the VS18 maybe it had something to do with lack of A/C
The VS9 was also CANX on the 11SEP not sure why.
There has been lots of problems lately. I have flown on several flight with problems.
I flew on SEP 11 and the flight was full.
