TS 623
London Gatwick - Manchester
Departure Time : 21 May 2006 @ 1200
Flight Time : about 35 minutes
No inflight entertainment or food served.
The trip begins at Victoria Station, where I boarded a Gatwick Express train for the 35 minute journey to the airport. Although I wasn't particularly late, arriving about an hour and a half prior to departure, I was among the last people to check-in.
I saw their plane inbound and their check-in desks outbound.
It was raining that morning in London. Although the flight was supposed to depart at 1200, there was a delay due to the incoming aircraft arriving late, so in the end we waited quite some time in the lounge.
We were finally able to board and the flight departed an hour behind schedule.
