Hello All,

I happened to be spotting around BEY yesterday when I was confused by two Alitalia A321's arriving within a 3 minute difference to land at BEY. The only Alitalia flight schedule to BEY is AZ824 out of Rome. Although I find it highly unlikely, but is it possible that Alitalia actually sent two planes by mistake?! Or did they have a sudden need for a second plane to accommodate a surplus of passengers?

Cheers,

MEA310

The answer was inside the Terminal. It was packed with Italian UN soldiers returning home. You sould have also noticed that it was weird for the Italia A321 to de-throne the AF 77W from its prefered gate 23 Smile

The 1st one was the regular FCO-BEY-FCO flight (AZ 824/825), the second one was a military charter flight (AZ 8164/8171) FCO-TRS-BEY-TRS-FCO, both operated with A-321 according to Alitalia.com

That sure explains it, thanks for the tip MEA330! Where did AF's 77W end up parking? 22?
