Icelandair has some hub
But why is there a flight in Mexico?

Also why is ICE1510 going to Dub and EIN4960 going to Kef? on the exact same flightpath and they both depart at the same time (Kef 1634 & Dub 1733)...

Nice spot but I don't understand your question.

EI does'nt do Iceland, does it?
How come they both depart at the same time?
How come the flightpath is almost identical, given winds etc?

The OP is wondering why these flights are being operated as neither of the two airlines sell seats/operate that route regularly.

snubbleste · 12-04-2015 06:47PM

Is it a charter for Irish tourists or Icelandic tourists?

Ach I missed this one over NI, an old Gulfstream III. N183PA was originally built in 1983!

Actually I thought it was older but the reg has been re-used three times; first on a Gulfstream I, then on a II.

WOW.... just WOW.... what an interior for a 1983 aircraft...

Originally HZ-MS3, hence the right side door.

Routes to Iceland are either on airways or set tracks and don't vary because of the winds as they are not part of the NAT system.

As explained they are both charter flights and have run for several years both at 2x weekly I think. To allow a few days in Iceland. Both have missed out on opening up this route in their respective scheduled system and expanding on it, this will be done by WOW when they start up soon.

Over Wexford now

Wise Old Elf · 12-04-2015 11:26PM

Didn't get out to Shannon but saw/heard it passing a couple of miles south of home at about 6000ft, great nice from it even that far away.

JCX BXC · 13-04-2015 12:20AM

I haven't seen that TK cargo A332 into SNN for a while, anyone else see it?

andy_g · 13-04-2015 12:42AM

List of todays flights over Ireland.

*List is Aircraft through my radar box antenna range, and may not have everything listed.

Upon closer inspection, I have found that neither TK6755 or TK6729 have visited Shannon in the past week. Has the service been axed?

From what I'm gathering off the various flight tracking webites, it last ran on the 12th of march, meaning there was only ever 3 flights doing IST-SNN-ORD. Is it normal for Cargo airlines to pull out so fast?

If you don't attract the contracts to run the route then you can chop it overnight, not like passenger flights that upset lots of individuals.

JCX BXC · 13-04-2015 02:30AM

Seems strange to Run a route with a big PR release and then chop it so fast, surely they would have had quite a few contracts to even run the route in the first place.

Pinch Flat · 13-04-2015 09:34AM

Jet2 over southern England just made a pretty rapid descent. Edit sqawking 7700

lovelyhurler · 13-04-2015 09:39AM

Jet 2 (LS775) EDI - ALC sqawking 7700 - looks like its heading for Gatwick?

billie1b · 13-04-2015 09:46AM

LS775 seems to be gone into a hold now at 8,000ft, anyone remember if this is the same 733 thats always having minor problems for Jet2?

EDIT : Reg G-CELZ

Pinch Flat · 13-04-2015 09:55AM

Looks like they're on approach to LGW now.

Charlie-Bravo · 13-04-2015 10:26AM

I saw EI-ICR (Coast Guard) come past me from Newcatle, could see it on marine traffic, now squawking on FR24

http://www.flightradar24.com/5fd8880

edit: It only squawked for a short time just south of Howth Head until approach to DUB.

A Dub in Glasgo · 13-04-2015 10:53AM

A couple of Hawks and a Falcon off the west coast of Scotland

sjb25 · 13-04-2015 11:04AM
