VISITORS
It would be an understatement just to say that today was much better than the previous two. Four first visits, starting with Avanti I-FXRI (1189 ex I-PDVO) registered to K-Air & followed this morning by Ryanair B738 EI-EVJ (38501) on the first service from Dublin (just EI-EVB left to visit us). Air Berlin B738 D-ABBK (33013) was a newcomer this afternoon arriving from Kos (our first new Air Berlin for nearly three months), while Air Italy B737 EI-IGU (32422 ex G-EZKA) was also a newcomer this evening, operating from Olbia on behalf of Meridiana Fly.
On second visits were Emirates B773 A6-EGU, Orbest A320 EC-LRT & Air Bucharest B737 YR-TIB.
