check-in on just one leg of a composed flight

Hello all! Do you think I am allowed to check-in for just one leg of a flight with a stopover? So, I buy a ticket for Rome to New York over London and on the way back I want to check-in from New York to London only and get out there? Thanks in advance, Saludos, Mark.

Hola Airbuske,

I did another try and it is just on the VLC-AMS route, the other routes work fine. I imagine that they might have some problems in the schedule/slots on that route?

The airport at Castellon is already in construction phase, check this:

Hola Airbuske,

Although the combo-box in the reservation section of the Vueling website does allow you to select dates until Oct 2006, it is still not possible to book for example VLC-AMS for April 2006. An error window will pop-up stating that "Ticket reservations for this route is not yet ...

Last summer I posted a message about a go around with Virgin Express at MJV.... ( https://www.aviation24.be/postp112467.html#112467 )

Some weeks ago I had the same here at VLC with Vueling (from AMS)... Again no information from the crew, but when I left the plane I asked it and they said it was ...

I flew Valencia - Madrid - Buenos Aires / Buenos Aires - Madrid - Valencia with Iberia last may and wouldn´t recommend them. Really, think twice before buying the tickets!

The A340 was dirty, the leg-room was horrible, the entertainment service bad and more important : the crew was not friendly ...

timetable 2006 and another go-around

Hello,

Does anyone know when Vueling flights VLC-AMS for April 2006 can be booked? Do they have to wait for AENA confirmation again, like last year?

Saludos,

Metroliner off runway at Rotterdam

Just read at nu.nl that a Metroliner, bound for Birmingham skid of the runway at Rotterdam Airport. One of the seventeen passengers was hurt and transported to the hospital. Seems that one of the two engines caught fire during takeoff.

TV846 - go around - MJV - runway 05

Hello,

About three weeks ago (23/08/2005), I flew from Brussels to Murcia San Javier with Virgin Express (TV 846, 18:10 / 20:35), a very comfortable flight, especially due to the extra leg room we booked. After flying over "Mar Menor" and after doing some unexpected and heavy turns, we were ...

Runway ID numbering system

Hello,

Maybe its not the correct forum to ask this question, but I hope to find here somebody that knows the answer to this: How are runway identifier numbers chosen (like 07R/25L for BRU) ? And what does the L and R suffix means? Does it all has something to do with the heading and/or length of ...
