Looks like it's gone to STN according to http://www.flightarrivals.com.

It's supposed to have left there for LHR at 1950 but doesn't seem to have departed yet.

Funny old thing that you can't get that info from either BAA or VS (who are directly affected by it) but a third-party site based in the US does carry it....[:?]

It has made an stop at STN - It departed there approx 10 mins ago... Due back at LHR in 15/20 mins - A/C is G-VFOX if it helps anyone. :)

That explains the VS A340 Mrs csparker saw as we landed at STN on FR983 today (I know - but FR flies to 20 mins away from my family holiday home).

Can't confirm the reg - sorry!

Don't worry, there's no shame attached. Some of us have no choice but to use FR [:I]

Indeed. I enjoyed flying with them lol.

Plus, it makes you enjoy VS even more afterwards! ;-)

True! True!

Actually in fairness I have never had a bad FR flight but it's the whole ethos around them that creates the negative feelings.

My next FR flight (unless I have some to DUB for work) will be to connect to a VS flight at LGW. I shall really enjoy that flight even if that can also be called "no frills" given the lack of the IFBT and V-port
