Booked on VS 75 MAN-MCO on Sunday 28th Oct. For some reason the flight doesn't arrive MCO until 15:50, 75 minutes longer than the usual flight. [:0]

My first thought was that it was something to do with altering the clocks but I then found out that the flight is also scheduled to arrive at 15:50 on Thu 1st Nov through to Sat 3rd Nov of the following week.

Anyone got any ideas what the reason is? [:?]

Thanks in anticipation.

Paul

Schedule padding?

Hour change in Europe is on 28th October, but in USA not until the first Sunday in November, which is Nov 4th. So there is a one hour difference between those dates. (Not sure about the extra 15 minutes!)

As I said I thought that Mike but it reverts to it's normal arrival time on Mon Tues & Wed. [:?]

Thanks for the input, will probably give flying club a bell tomorrow see if they can shed some light.

Regards.
