The BA12 SIN-LHR departing 16-Sept 11.15pm departed nearly 5 hours late at 3.56am and is scheduled to land 4h52 minutes behind schedule. Anyone has any idea what the reason is?
I have a friend on board who probably looks forward to receiving 600 euro?

XLEB heading to MNL
LEB is approaching Mongolia.

I'm guessing the idea was originally to do a swap with LEA in mid December when it finished in MNL ... but then LEB went tech in JNB and screwed up the cunning plan !

LEB visit is via Gatwick

BA A380 positioning from Heathrow to Gatwick

First BA A380 visit to Gatwick? I drew a black when searching if one had.

I saw one of the A380 at MNL airport when I landed on 2nd March. Evening landing so no one working on it, good view of it on taxi

LEC to MNL via LGW
shame she didn't manage a SIN swapover with LEB - two empty flights within a week of each other - what a waste

XLEC and XLEJ swap ?
XLEC has just come out of two months in Manila maintenance, and positioned to the nearby Angeles City airport (CRK)

XLEJ has just left LHR for SIN ... and is about ready for a checkup


hopefully they've checked that XLEC has all the required equipment !
