Hi

Does anyone know why VFAB has gone to MAN on the way home today? A top up of fuel I guess after headwinds?

VS08 has been diverted


We are very sorry that VS08 5Dec has been diverted to Manchester due to flight congestion because of fog at London Heathrow.

The plan is to refuel and continue as soon as possible.

Estimated time of arrival at London Heathrow is 15-10 local time
