On Monday December 20th, 2010 I made a spotting trip to Manchester together with fellow scramble members David van Woerkom (bendavid2) and Jeffrey Schäfer (jeffreyklm).
This was the plan:
- In the morning we would fly to Manchester with flight EZY1832 at 10.10am,
- and in the evening we would fly back to Amsterdam with flight EZY1835 departing at 5.50pm
The beginning of our trip was not quite 'peacefull' as I can say; I woke up at about 5.30am and then saw that our flight (EZY1832) was cancelled

We decided to go to Schiphol anyway, to see if we could get a refund or another flight at the EasyJet desk. Then I waited for the train to take me to the Rotterdam Central Station, but it had a delay of 45 minutes, so I arrived late for the Fyra to Schiphol. But fortunately the connecting train also had a significant delay. While we were in the Fyra, we discovered that they suddenly removed the word 'cancelled' from the schiphol website. So we arrived at Schiphol and yes, the flight wasn't cancelled!
So with a very good mood after all we started our trip, in Manchester it was sunny but veeery cold!
