G-VGBR was supposed to leave MCO as VS76 that Saturday evening. The flight was cancelled.
I wonder where all the passengers went?

I was looking because we are booked on VS76 next Saturday. I too noticed the touch and go on playback on FR24.

So VS get an aircraft back from maintenance and then loose another. I see FAN is back in service after 5 months without engines, but DIA is still out of service following her wing clip at LHR

VS could do with those back…..

We should have been on that vs76 flight, ended up being shipped out to Atlanta the next morning with a 9.5 hr layover in the lounge. Rumour from a friend of mine being a hydraulic issue which meant landing without flaps….seems serious if she’s sat there 2 weeks!

To add to all this (and sounding like a broken record now!), G-VRAY spent 48hrs on the ground at St Lucia Fri-Sun and VS221 is cancelled again today. Seems to me there’s next to no resilience in the fleet at the moment.

Indeed VS seem to be having issues with some of their fleet recently.

The B789 (G-VDIA) that clipped the BA A350 at the beginning of April on the ground at LHR T3 is still out of service (as is the BA A350). As least G-VFAN is now finally back in service after being grounded since Dec last year.

I flew on G-VTOM last month with a none-functional APU in both directions.

There’s another A350 + A339 due for delivery pretty soon which should give VS a little more wiggle room.
