Posted: 26 Mar 2009, 15:11Posted: 26 Mar 2009, 16:14Could be various reasons, load numbers are on either this flight or any other flight that means a change in a/c (config) works better or an 346 could be due for maintenance etc so one less available for ops. I would have thought these are probably the most likely explanations but it really could be anything.
Posted: 26 Mar 2009, 16:23Virgin have changed the VS005 operations to a B747 for most of the summer. I think during July and august its a 346 tue/wed/thu and a 744 on fri/sat/sun/mon but ISTBC.
Maybe virgin think MIA can make more money than other routes on the 747.
The 747 will operate VS45, VS5, VS19, VS11 during the summer timetable and during the busy school holidays the VS1 and VS7
