Down to gate A1 in plenty of time and presented myself at the side of the gate and straight through with the preboards. Shortly thereafter there was a clear automated call for group 0, the first time I’ve heard that at Heathrow.




Two minutes wait and boarding started…

Well, almost… #boardingnotboarding



Didnt have long to wait and then it was time to board. The crew this morning have just come in from Newcastle so I could have made it on the early flight, but that was a little too much risk for my taste

As mentioned before, row 3 for this one and a very tight fit



I’ve asked the crew to give me the nod if there is a row 1 no show but I doubt that I’ll get that lucky.

G-TTNT this morning, which I have been on board once before over 18 months ago on a NCL-LHR



And it will be a long 90 minutes, screaming child in 2F

On the bright side, 1D is a no show…. This is much better



And an announcement that wifi is broken this morning…. Let the whinging commence

Next Stop: Dublin in a little over an hour and a half’s time.
