hmmmmn no mention of reduction on our internal website either so not sure that's true? Maybe they got it mixed up cause is on a 747 four days a week and an airbus the other three days? Very much doubt that Boston wont go daily.
Is on 747 Mon/Fri/Sat/Sun and 343/346 on tue/wed/thu up until 30th July, then on 346 for the whole of August.

That site Nick has linked is normally very reliable as it takes the schedule straight out of the various airline schedule systems, which are updated earlier than airline websites.

HAving said that they have now amended the post slightly Click Here.

It seems that there has been a mess up between the general schedule and the VS specific schedule on the GDS.
