Poster: A snowHead
|
Early morning check-in on 1st of Feb for flight to GVA. The previous day I have a job to do on Isle of Man and have booked the last flight home at around 6:30pm. I feel, in hinidsight, that I'm tempting Sod's Law to jump up and bite me on the bum with a cancelled flight.

If you do get stuck on the island, there's a flight direct from IoM to GVA on the second... if so, I'll see you there.

robcraine, Are you from the IOM?
I thought I was alone on
I'm going next week via Gatwick to Grenoble all in price £160. A lot cheaper than Flybe (but with added hassle)
halfhand, I'm sure you will be OK. It's pretty rare that flights to LPL are cancelled and the long range forecast is for similar weather to now.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Michael B,You're probably right. I visit the island 2 or 3 times a year for work. I remember once being delayed for 1.5 hrs leaving LPL , circling the Isle of man for another 40mins and then returning to LPL because couldn't land. Oh how we laughed.

Just an update.
I'm now anxiously waiting at Isle of Man airport fully expecting my flight to Liverpool due off at 18:25 to be cancelled. If I was a nail biter they'd be bitten to the quick by now.
If unlucky enuff to get cancelled:
Plan B - transfer to Manchester for 18:40 flight
Plan C - flight to Gatwick at 06:30 tomorrow morning
Plan D - Empress hotel Douglas and get blasted
Michael B, I'm a humble medical physicist and will be trying to assess the performance of a computed radiography system. Laundering pixels you might say
