I haven't heard from anyone that has been booked on a a330 yet from Glasgow

it is funny that the virgin A330 came to glasgow even before it came to manchester, do we know if it has been in to manchester yet not seen any pictures?

still showing as working the gla to mco two weekends in june and two in august

Greart photos, I really like the first one.

Mach One,I believe that there next A330 will be based at MAN,G-VKSS ,think is the reg, VSXY hast been to MAN ,but has been To East Midlands, Glasgow,Liverpool and Gatwick( were its to be based)
Originally what I had heard was that the A330 was replacing the 747 at Glasgow , then it changed as most of their A330 were Leased to China and Virgin were only getting 2 of their original order
the schedule I had seen has it operating May through to October and I still haven't heard from any one whose been booked on it yet
