They're not approaches, that's a holding pattern.

EI3833 /STK3833 passing Dublin now to Cork or will they bother heading down?

Prop plane from Manchester glided in first attempt with no issue while the Aer Lingus was trying to get down. Not sure if it used the perpendicular runway?

EI-EZC - is that a Volotea charter ex SNN? Thought they only flew from Cork to Verona?

The crew were requesting a few thousand feet on runway 25, on Live ATC while the Stobart was landing.

This seems to match the tail number for the ORK to AMS flight tomorrow morning, EI-DVL . Does this mean that flight might well be affected?

Well it will depend what happens the aircraft and crew once the storm subsides later.

As it stands Cork is now down one aircraft.

Back on stand now

See a few Ryanair’s circling cork and Shannon. One looks headed up to Dublin. Also an Aer Lingus regional headed to cork from Manchester. Surely that’ll be diverted too.

2 of them got in earlier while Aer Lingus and Ryanair diverted. Latest METAR shows it blowing straight down Runway 25 so could be doable for them.

Would not fancy being the passengers in that bean tin! Did that once before during that December 2015 storm, it was a horrible experience

Just heard the nightly Manchester to Cork EI flight overhead now so it’s obviously going to try and land in Cork anyway.

Looks that way! But a Ryanair is still circling. Surely it’s more difficult land the turboprops in this ?

There are 2 ATR's inbound which i reckon will choose 25, a Ryanair is still doing the rounds south of the airport

Storm 10

The props can use the shorter runway 07/25, the wind is literally blowing at 250 degrees so they are straight into it.
07/25 is too short for 737/ A320's, they have to use 16/34.

Birmingham heading into land now in Cork.
