[Mickey Mouse]

Yup just been looking on Virgin Holidays and the return of the VS049/050 Departing LGW at 3.00pm and Leaving MCO at 22.45. So thats 3 LGW-MCO 2 MAN-MCO and 1 GLA-MCO, Thats 6 747-400 into mco! Immirgration is sure going to be fun if ones delayed:eek:
Where are they going to get the extra a/c from?:confused:


also on the Virgin note if anyone is looking for a late economy deal

Well they obviously must feel they can fill the planes even with a downturn in the UK economy. However all I keep thinking of is more planes to be delayed.:tut-tut:

VS arnt actually that bad compared to others!

For 2007 (Gatwick to Orlando)

45% on time
38% within 15 mins
14% within 1 hr
3% within 2+ hrs

Only tend to hear about the last 17% though

I think it's the well-reported delays recently of 6-hours plus (and even longer) which have really caught people's attention. VA do seem to have had repeated problems, more than most, but hopefully they will be back on track now.

Plus, of course, the serious delays have just caught just about everyone on here who has travelled to Florida since April!
