LCY fog delays
Looks like a foggy day down in London, the usual suspects at the EDI lounge are doing a fantastic job of re-booking people to LGW and other options as they become available.

Anyways: anyone who is booked out of LCY today, and not yet at an airport, may want to look at the Change Date / Time of my Flight in Manage My Booking. It allowed me to switch from LCY to LHR without issues.

Well you're doing a job which I could never do, I'd last about 15 minutes. I sure it causes you no harm, and your sense of humour is clearly unaffected. Feel free to post more about the fun and games of being a TRM (turnaround manager, the guy/gal who runs around the aircraft with sheets of paper just before departure) at LCY....

One morning shift, after a hockey game the night before (ice hockey goalie here - that does one harm) - I stepped over with one leg and the other one sort of didn't fully make it... needless to say i tripped over my own departure gate ropes haha
To be fair I found out later I have fractured two ribs in the game the night before.
High pain threshold..
I think I'm the only Scottish TRM... been in my shirt sleeves since Feb, even at -2c outside

There was a big long queue outside the lounge earlier and everything a bit chaotic. Never seen the lounge so busy but staff doing a great job helping everyone and servers are as smiley as usual.
