Flying out of Brum

[matt21]

I am flying out of Birmingham tomorrow teatime. Whats the chances of the flight being cancelled/delayed?

[boobles]

One of our German colleagues has been told that "most" flights should be ok tomorrow. So long as this volcanic ash dissappears quickly.

17% and 38% possibly.

dunno....even our scheduled flight (military) has been cancelled today.

NATS has grounded everything at the mo.

On of my colleagues has had his planned flight to Tokyo today cancelled, but it's re-scheduled for tomorrow. We've also got someone going to Athens tomorrow which is ok. It depends on your airline - I'd check with them.

The answer is it is whenever NATS decide you can.

Can't you just stick her back on a boat?

I reckon it'll be beyond then to be honest.
Unless there is a big change in wind direction (fnarr fnarr!) at least...

Our German colleauge has just decided to drive back to ulm. 600 miles in 10 hours he reckons. Could be possible i suppose.

bad news all round...looks like I wont be flying to prague, and Ardeanuer spends the weekend with the mother in law

will I get my money back?

[boobles]

Nope. Natural disaster/nature i beleive which means it's not the airline's fault hence you may "not" get your money back.
