I concur with sparrowcar, planning to upload any vids?

Looks like things are settling back into a normal pattern now, expect SNN to empty soon.

Edit: What's this?

Sorry sparrow only had the phone would have got nothing!
Amazing stuff though, some had a grand time and others are getting seriously rolled and pitched.
Some late calls on the go arounds!

Isn't that some kind of deal EI have with another airline where they're using EI aircraft and crew? I could be imagining this..

Hello, I'm new to this thread but have been watching the flight tracker for a few weeks now. Spotted this just now

http://www.flightradar24.com/RYR1391

A Ryanair flight that took off at Shannon and flew a figure of eight around Galway and has just landed again at Shannon. I know nothing about aviation - what's going on there then?? Weather? Emergency? Thanks!

Yep. EI are leasing 1 of their A330's to Novair over the summer. It will operate with EI crew doing charter flights from Stockholm to several Caribbean destinations.

Ah ok, thanks for that - didn't even know there were Santa flights from Shannon. Just had a quick look on the Shannon site, that's a lovely idea and free as well. Proper Christmas spirit!!

Apparently for Belfast, yet seems to be turning to Dublin? Could be a FR24 fault I guess.

Dublin seems busy today.

flazio

Few flights holding above DUB, something wrong or just heavy traffic?
