Can anyone tell me what flight path Excel will take on direct flight Gat - Tob?
Is it south to spain then tranatlantic over the azores, or north then out across south of Greenland and down to the carribean off the US east coast.

Hi Dan
Welcome aboard!
If memory serves me correctly, the flight path crosses the Azores.

Dan G.,the flight goes down the English Channel and then an almost direct line across the Atlantic to near Barbados and then down the chain.

We flew with Excel in May to Tobago and the Saturday flight goes down the English Channel then direct to St Kitts over the Azores,touches down for an hour (Where we were lucky enough to speak with the pilot) He informed us that the official flightpath was then to go back towards Barbados and then down to Tobago but to save time he was going to fly directly down across the other islands which saved about 20 mins on the journey.In total the extra time involved from St Kitts to Tobago was a mere 40 mins.
