    Load on QF 1030 BNE-BME?

    Many Thks for the info. Thought as I was now only QF gold my WP Shadow would be no more. Might be just lucky on this flt as your info shows it to be a light load to BME. Again Thankyou for the updates on the loads from EF.

    After years of flying, always something new to laugh at

    For me a few years ago. One of my few few ftls on VB MKY-BNE. Family of 5 seated accross the 737 pass parts of a Bar-B-Q chicken accross the isle to feed the kids. Then wipe there hands on the seat !! Gross to do that. But did smell great and made me hungry.

    We have stayed twice in the MGM Signature apartments. Spent 10 days in LAS there in May. Have a look on tripadvisor, it is No.2/3 of the best picks in town to stay.
