Yesterdays 786 was delayed, so 2 flights today i guess. 701 probably cancelled to accommodate 2nd 786.

PK701/702 ISB-MAN-ISB was cancelled due a very poor load both from ISB and MAN.

PK785 was cancelled on 22OCT and the load was combined on todays flight 23OCT.
There is only 01 PK785 flight into LHR today arriving about 01hr late.

If they could manage to operate a flight with only 79 passengers onboard using a 777 (PAK-YYZ) then why not this 701/702? I've seen many other UK bound flights being cancelled for similar reasons as well :!:

Interesting so what did they do with the b747 that was scheduled for PK785 on 22Oct? could a smaller aircraft be exchanged instead?
