    Thomas Cook 767 (to do a deportation flight)

    ....................................................................................

    the two Saabs & the Beech 1900 brought in pax to join this flight!

    Correct me if I picked you up wrong here, but are you saying that the Saabs and Beech 1900 are being used to transport deportees to Dub to connect them with the 767 for their onward journey ?

    Where was the 767 going to??

    I think this is shameful waste of taxpayers money, make these people responsible for their own repatriation like most other countries

    Yes, several EU countries "code share" on these repatriation flights - to save money. I believe that Jet2 737 G-CELF also brought in passengers from Stansted to join this flight.

    I'd rather they paid 3/400 per head and get rid of these leeches than keep them fed in custody for god knows how long

    Aha, thanks.

    I never copped that the feeder aircraft may be coming from other jurisdictions. :o

    Makes perfect sense now.

    Back on topic - Great photos.
