    Don't worry there will still be >2-3 idiots on each flight giving out that the pilot are fools, and that the weather was fine according to the app on their phone.

    GLF5 showing just as a gulfstream 5 jet, do they not use codes like commercial aircraft if its private?
    It's crossing Northern Ireland now, I'm imagining a businessman smoking cigars oblivious to the storm as its up so high!

    This may make more sense to you than I but 67X said rough approach but no wind shear advisory. 745Q said very rough last 1000ft.

    Might not be done yet! I've got a mate on FR119 which diverted to Liverpool. The pilot is refuelling at the moment to come back to DUB.

    He's heard the news of the other two. . .determined to make it a FR hat trick.

    Have they been kept on the runway all the time or disembarked? I don't like people being left on the runway for sustained amounts..and just why do Italy refuse refuelling with passengers on board? But slightly off topic..!

    Apparently some people wouldn't fly back tonight and demanded to disembark. Everyone who's flying back is staying on the plane.

    Will be interesting to see whether we suddenly see more planes from Glasgow, Manchester and Birmingham spring up!

    That seems to be the plan at the moment anyway. They've also offered hotels to anyone who wants to stay in Liverpool. According to my mate around one third of the passengers are staying put.

    Don't be surprised if MOL turns up dressed as a cloud to greet them all when they arrive . . .complete with smiles and semi-naked women.

    Presuming this LPL does as RYR are saying, just why does it always seem to take a large amount of time after diverting like this to get moving again? I mean obviously at present neither LPL or DUB are even busy.

    There's a Bristol one en route MAN now as well, from somewhere in the Middle East by the loks of it...

    EDIT - Make that EMA

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.
