VS3044 - Saturday 28th March

For those on the final VS3044 today....a real treat awaits.

A water cannon salute will take place at J2 23R to mark the final departure. It will be a Little Red liveried aircraft too after days of using a "green tail"

I'm on the VS3045 Jon, anything planned for that do you know?

We had the water cannon salute on the final SYD flight last year, was a very moving moment

I'm on the VS3045 Jon, anything planned for that do you know?

So am I...not sure but will let you know if I hear anything

Thanks!

I will be on the 3044 I will ensure my phone battery is charged and camera is on.

Thanks for the info.

Excellent, "Queen of the Cobbles" and the team will take great care of you

Thanks Jon.
I was hoping for 'queen of the cobbles' it seems fitting that the aircraft used for the first flight should be used for the last flight.
I shall be sat in the same seat as on the inaugural (3F).

Just checked in for the VS3045. Looks like they've already given up - given a letter apologising for no catering on the flight and a refreshment voucher in lieu.

Just taken up my position next to the gate. Decided to skip the Escape lounge as I only turned up with an hour to spare.
Dying for a bottle of water...

Have a good flight.

Have a great flight all sorry couldn't be there at the end but agree LR will be missed

1 down, 2 to go.

Though it seems the booking engine is expediting the loss of the EDI route..
Currently trying to look at flights next month, and it's only returning one or two flight options per day. *sigh*
