Aaaaaw! I'll miss it coming into ORK [:#]
One time Aer John and I were in the departure lounge when an Air Wales flight taxied out ready for take off. A small child was watching and ran over to his mum to tell her that the Chinese plane was going. Bless!

Thanks for that Mike.Bit of a shame really -I've used them a few times in the past and they were pretty good.Glad to see though that alternative carriers are stepping forward to take up the bulk of the routes though.I did like the dragon Air Wales had painted on the tail of the planes though..

Hi Honeylamb
Cork was one of the routes I used to use (to visit elderly father)although it was a route technically operated by BMI Baby.I like the notion of the "chinese plane" though!!.I'm rather fond of ORK -it reminds me a bit of CWL and is infinately preferable to DUB which I loathe and detest (usually because Ryanair have managed to lose luggage/delay flight etc etc).
