EasyJet Flight delay to following day
Comments

I'm not saying you're implying otherwise but just to be clear, at least for the Edinburgh works, it's the start time of the work that's fixed, rather than that of the last flight, i.e. the airport is saying to the airlines 'you can land up to 23:45' rather than 'we'll start after all flights have landed', and hence OP's issue.strawb_shortcake said:My OH is currently working on the resurfacing of a regional airport. They don't start work until around an hour after the last flight, there have been some delayed flights but only by 30 minutes.
The whole contract is only 4 weeks, so there is only so much flex when you take into account weather stoppages and delayed flights.

You were essentially the one suggesting Easyjet were cowboys by running flights close to runway closure times, merely suggesting even the beloved flag carrier airlines do exactly the same.ThorOdinson said:la531983 said:Indeed, and tonight you even have a KLM due in at 2310 and a BA not long before this. Are they cowboy outfits also for doing the same @ThorOdinson ?
Who said anything about cowboys, @la531983, if that is your real name?
Not sure what my name has to do with anything. You are aware you dont have to use a real one on here yes?
You know what they say about making assumptions.0
