    Thats standard for heading down to apron 6 if there is traffic on the apron, you'll notice lots of aircraft do it during the day also, there's only one way in and out of there

    With all these diversions due to fog last night, is this an example of the fog someone was talking about a few months ago, where some jetstream hits a certain point in the Irish Sea, and just goes straight over DUB?

    As one of the other posters in D16 said, I'm in D14, and great evening yesterday

    Medical emergency was the reason for divert.

    Easyjet A320 routing NCL-BFS diverted to Dublin due to thunderstorms overhead Aldergrove, landed around 14:15 first time I have ever seen Easyjet at Dublin and a nice sharklet equipped model :)

    Looking to the north towards Aldergrove now there are solid slate-grey clouds. Fearsome sight.

    Yeah. Last time was around Christmas, the crew had done 20 minutes holding at Aldergrove then shot a missed approach, they came straight into EIDW for Runway 16 and if they didn't make the approach they were going to declare an emergency, all went fine thankfully.

    Lots of inbound aircraft holding at the moment, nothing landing, anyone know what is going on?

    Low visibility procedures are in operation due to low cloud base, slows everything up.

    Checking RWY10 for CAT III due to low vis.. 20 - 30 mins holding.. Looks like 10 is ok for approaches shortly. Will be an interesting night.
