SQ291|21APR (SIN-CBR-WLG) operated by 9V-SQM was delayed by almost 5 hours. It had to RTB twice; first due to a technical issue and the second time was due to a medical case. Each time to a different gate; from A20 (original departure gate) to A14 and finally pushed back for the 3rd time from A17.

SQ622 | 14 APR | SIN-KIX | 9V-STB

What a delay and diversion experience and a first for me in a couple of areas.

SQ622 was a smooth flight until about 20 minutes away from landing in KIX, pilots announced gusty conditions due to low stormy clouds. Sure it was choppy but moderate turbulence at best as we passed through never ending clouds whilst descending. As the plane descended to about 1,300+ feet in now choppy and fairly severe turbulence, the engines roared to life and we angled up steeply to avoid the worsening conditions and this was our first go around. Not a nice feeling when it was dark, cloudy and turbulent.

Second go around happened when we were barely 100+ feet from landing and this time it was bad as the plane was swaying sideways from the winds and it was obvious the pilots tried to compensate for the bad conditions by being higher than "normal" when approaching the runway which I believe caused the 2nd go around decision as we may have exceeded certain "safe" parameters so up hard, angled and of course through thick clouds with lots of bounciness once more.

Decision then to land in Nagoya to assess conditions and refuel. Interesting that SQ decided to go to the further Nagoya than nearby Osaka International as they have ground staff in Nagoya but not Osaka International.

Finally landed in KIX about 3 hours past the scheduled 935pm time.

First time for me having 2 go arounds and first time ever in Nagoya (tarmac anyway)

Hmm loading doesn't look too great, especially in the premium cabins

SQ 119|15APR KUL-SIN was also delayed. According to the pilot, it was due to the number of planes taking off and landing at Changi that caused the delay.

MI 341|15APR KUL-SIN was also delayed since it was also a turnaround flight from Singapore. Flight landed around in SIN 12.30 am.

Yes, it does appear that there will be disruptions to JFK again, as well as the other one in France.

[Nichardenberg]

It is possible that a lockout by the Danish government of its employees from a number of Danish functions and institutions will occur from 4th-10th of April 2018 in a response to warned strikes by unions in failed negociations of new unions agreements, I am not aware in which way this would affect flight in and out of CPH Kastrup Airport, but it is the generel opinion that the lockout by the government to its employees to be broad and hence affect many functions, even here in Nuuk Greenland where I reside there is speculations that due to all meteological rapports to pilots are done by the Danish Meteological Institute which are supposed to be affected will cause flights to be cancelled. Not sure if SIA flights would be affected in this way or another if this lockout takes place, I have fligt to CPH 20th april and CPH-SIN-BKK april 22nd, hopefully this will not be affected....

[SQ-77W]

US East Coast looks set to face yet another heavy snowstorm on Wednesday from their fourth Nor'easter in a month, dumping between 12 to 16 inches of snow. Wonder what the odds are in the cancellation of the SQ26 FRA-JFK and return SQ25 JFK-FRA legs.

Looks like the SIA's A350s is still giving some despatch reliability issues although its been about 2 years since its introduction to its fleet.

SQ31|14MAR (9V-SMR) is AOG in SFO.

Wow another A359 has gone AOG, a fairly new one at that too. Wonder what happened to SMR in this instance....
