Current comments are that the aircraft G-CEJM is still at JFK and still tech.
The passengers from 30th June have been flown into Shannon by a Delta scheduled flight.

Oh Dear

Update from the above from Irish news site

How long can this outfit last??

And it gets worse.
from WESH 2 the Orlando Tv station
http://www.wesh.com/news/13605346/detail.html

It seems that they cancelled the SFb-GLA flight on Saturday, told them all to come back on Monday, but the pax have had to pay their own hotel rooms and food. No FGS agents at the airport to help the pax or answer any questions.

So they have left passengers at
BOS
JFK
SFB

Funnily I met a new FGS pilot last night in the Hilton bar who was up here in Edinburgh on training. He used to fly Vulcans... very nice man.

I can't see this airline lasting much longer without major changes in their op's.

Agreed-

Myself and a few others on here have been watching with interest GSM going from bad to worse over the last 10 months. The moral of the story is that a good short haul airline doesnt always make a good long haul airline.

I see Zoom picking up the 763's from GSM and increasing presence at LGW on the US runs or starting MAN-JFK.

Don't wish to be big-headed or anything but last year I suggested that this airline was expanding long-haul too quickly, and would not be able to cope. Looks like I was proven right [n]
