Hi, I've seen others ask for load checks and wondered what the significance is? I'm assuming its how many seats are available for sale? Therefore how busy the flight will be? Can someone in the know check Saturdays flight to Orlando for me?

Another question is this flight starting in Manchester and collecting in Glasgow? or is it just Glasgow only? We are scheduled to have an A330 but from my reading of all your wonderful posts here, it looks like there are just the 2 and they are operating from Gatwick and Manchester? Am I right? ?|

Forewarned is forearmed. We are in PE on Saturday if we are going to end up in a 747 I would rather be in the upstairs bit if I could :)

I just did a dummy booking and the VS71 on Saturday is due to be a A330 so just PE and Economy and no upstairs but you will have the super dooper new IFE

Apart from a couple of destinations in the Caribean I don't think VS generally does double pick-ups so your flight will be direct.

There is an A330 operating daily from MAN and then the other is operating some LGW flights and also some from GLA depending on how busy the loads are.

Good spot - bloodhound ears it is ( and that's only at 4 months :0 ) with a little bit of pointer. Seemingly bred that way for drug / explosives sniffing


Enjoy your trip and mind the report !

Glasgow flights for us are great, especially the timing but yet to try the new planes. Have a look at the TR index for my last one from gla
