On Wednesday 3 August, EY455, the 2045 hours SYD - AUH (A380 A6-APH) was only taxiing at 2147 so it may be late into the Middle East.

EY484, the Wednesday 10 August 2016 arrival in BNE ex AUH is about 71 minutes late as it should arrive at approximately 1851 tonight. Aircraft is B789 A6-BLB. It was timetabled to depart AUH at 2150 hours on Tuesday 9 but did not take off until 2334, which is about 80 minutes late so it will have made up a little time gate-to-gate.

 

[Melburnian1]

Thursday 11 August sees EY454 running about 50 minutes late with A6-APH (A380) likely to arrive in SYD at 1845, 50 minutes behind schedule.

Is that actually a word?

Is that actually a word?

There are numerous references in Google to suggest 'yes.' It can be changed to 'late', 'delayed' or 'tardy' if you prefer.

I was thinking 'non' instead of 'un'...which is how it is on dictionary.com.

On Friday 14 October, EY455, the Thursday 13 2145 hours evening SYD - AUH was unable to depart, as the inbound AU454 (AUH to SYD) arrived in the latter at 0559 on Friday 14 instead of 1915 hours on Thursday evening.

A380 A6-APB took off at 0956 this morning from SYD with arrival suggested as 1710 this afternoon in AUH instead of a dawn breaking 0540.

I was thinking 'non' instead of 'un'...which is how it is on dictionary.com.

I can't see anything wrong apart from it being coughbersome with saying 'non punctual' if one prefers, but consider what we use when we do not believe an event is 'satisfactory.'

It might be logical to say 'non satisfactory' (or simply 'not satisfactory') but common usage is 'unsatisfactory.'

 

[Melburnian1]

Saturday 15 October has EY485, the Friday 14 overnight from AUH to PER set to arrive 38 minutes late at 1348. B789 A6-BLH is the plane.

 

[Melburnian1]

Sunday 16 October sees EY450 from AUH very late, being predicted to arrive in SYD at 1009 instead of 0740. A6_ETN is the B773ER. It did not take off on Saturday 15 from AUH until 1414 despite a scehduled pushback time of 1040, so it has made up some time on a gate-to-gate basis, but naturally insufficient to erase the timekeeping deficit.

 

[Melburnian1]

EY454 into BNE on Wednesday 19 October look like arriving at approximately 1926 instead of 1740, aircraft being A6-BLB, a B789. It was meant to push back in AUH at 2150 on Tuesday 18 but did not take off until 0033 today, so it will have made up some time.

 

[Melburnian1]

A week after the previous post, Wednesday 26 October, EY460 (2215 Tuesday 25 from AUH down to MEL) took off at 2314 hours. On Wednesday it is arriving at around 1944, 59 minutes late with A380 A6-APH.

 

[Melburnian1]

For the second consecutive day, EY460 is late. On 27 October it should arrive in MEL at roughly 1932, 47 minutes tardy. A380 A6-APD is the plane.
