Don’t take flight numbers as meaning “charter”. They don’t need to be under LO6xxx to be that. It’s a sales process. That is all.

If you check LO10 it is also 0 next week, week after, when Regulation ends, it is sold as usual.

If you check LO9, the return, it’s for sale as usual and you can see the booking classes are as they should be. This is the same for next week also, LO9 is for sale as usual as out from PL they are sold as scheduled.

This is how they get around the regulation.
So LO 10 will fly?

It has done the previous three weeks in exactly the same MO.

So yes, I don’t see why it would be cancelled.

OK, I will let my friends know. Hopefully tickets that were purchased before it became a charter will be honoured. If they are Polish passport holders do they need to quarantine when they get here?

Yes I would think they would. It’s a non-EU arrival on a prohibited direct flight destination. They are honoured.

If they’re Polish, I would hope they can read Polish too, it’s all on the Ministry of Health and MFZ websites, in English too.

I’m sure the crew will explain what the procedures are.

I just found this which explains the flight probably will fly

https://www.gov.pl/web/usa/powrot-do...lotami-pll-lot

Regarding quarantine I saw a previous article which said that for Poles :

On Thursday evening in the Journal of Laws, an amendment to the regulation of the Council of Ministers was published, according to which, among others, Polish citizens. The change took effect on Friday, July 3.
  • From 3 July, the requirement of a 14-day quarantine after returning to Poland from abroad will be abolished

Isn’t it 10 days now?

Anyway, the flight is operating. Quarantine is a matter for your Polish friends to sort out.

Talking of Basia and the magic mask. I see a number of crew are still using the Corona Blaster mask, with the one way filter that spreads deadly Corona all over her premium cabins.
This is BANNED by Daddy's CDC and all US carriers.

No champers today, in fact, no sparkling wine at all. The stocks are arriving tonight, allegedly.

I hear the Elite Lounge in WAW is back open and serving Champagne Champagne again!?

How does the intra-European business meal look nowadays?
Is there a full bar (should stocks have arrived)?

Even the agent I talked to today would love to know.
The only thing he was sure about was there wouldn't be any china nor glassware.

I don't know, perhaps someone can report what has happened since then?
Full bar never went away.
The meal I had last week was on porcelain, glasses and metal cutlery.

I appreciate your stance.

I trust in Polish exacting standards and generous hospitality.
So I cannot wait to fly LO this weekend.
