-Just tried re-booking my flight on both Expedia and xl.com and indeed my flight has been repalced with Scandic flight numbers!
B*gger.
Anyone know what their Finnair 757s are like?

-Good news for NCL, obviously the flights due to be operated by the 738 were filling quickly, and now the AY 757 is making a comeback to NCL :D
So this summer, NCL shall have;
Thomas Cook: 2 x 752
Britannia: 2 x 752
MyTravel: 1 x 320
Excel Airways: 2 x 734
Air Scandic: 1 x 752

-And presumably that frees up the 738 to go elsewhere.
Anyone got any SCY752 experiences they can tell me about?

-Nah only ever flown on the A300 with SCY, good airline though. The AY 757s tend to have less seats than UK charters have on their 757s.

-But Excel don't have any B737-400s.
Shome mishtake, shurely? ;)

I flew OH-LBS, MAN-HER when it was subbed in for what was meant to be a Flyjet B752. To be honest, it's likely to be more comfortable than the Excel B738 would have been. Even though it was quite possibly my worst flight ever. ;) Ok, well it was simply due to the fact that after the 3 hour delay(Flyjet's fault), no food (Flyjet's fault) and my 'window' seat turned out to be a nice blank wall. :mad: As you can tell, I've never had any horror stories concerned with any of the flights I've taken, hence why that particular flight was my worst. ;)

-Both Excel 734s leased from Islandflug Grey :)
I would much prefer a Scandic/Finnair 757 to an Excel 738, I think the AY 757s are quite modern, my friend flew MYT last year which was operated by an AY 757 and he thoroughly enjoyed the flight.

-Not exactly a new airline for NCL, having SCY based a Finnair 757 for a few years before it changed to an XLA 738 last year

Well I have a particular interest in this as I'm supposed to flying it in September, but pprune are reporting this morning that Excel will now have 2 x 737-400's at Newcastle with Air Scandic operating the 737-800 programme with a 752!
A better aircraft to fly on but I'd have rather flown with Excel.
Can anyone shed any light?
