cwoodwardParticipantSo more of the same in Europe then!
I blame equally the EU and Brexit as before them Europe was a pleasant place of gentle chaos and decline but now it seems more a place of rapid aggressive decline and intolerance – but of course its still a wonderful place to visit – provided that you are reasonably proficient on a bicycle of course!

LaundryManParticipantWe think things are bad at Heathrow yet at Frankfurt things seem to be being going from bad to worse. My son flew in last Thursday week from SFO to FRA and then to Toulouse – he arrived at Toulouse but his case did not make it even though it made it to the remote stand but according to his tracker did not load on the flight – it turned up two days later
Today Monday flying back to SFO from MAN via FRA the now two cases missed the flight at FRA and will fly on the next flight arriving four hours laters into SFO
At least he has WIFI on the flight and already knows the cases both missed the flight !!
…when will the chaos end ??

AMcWhirterParticipantEdinburgh’s Festival concludes at the end of August.
It’s a busy time for the airport and now Aurigny is having to operate out of Glasgow rather than the Scottish capital because of the latter airport’s “staff shortage” and “baggage issues.”
The flights in question are on August 26 and 29.

nevereconomyParticipantHas anyone been through Manchester recently, as they were reportedly one of the worst affected by the chaos ?

Are you asking about the airport or the football teams? If it’s latter then one is not (City) and the other (United) is deficitely still chaotic.

Tom OtleyKeymasterSome 26 EasyJet flights in and out of Gatwick have been cancelled at short notice, with the airport blaming staff sickness.
