Air Berlin - ruthless German efficiency - consistently 15 mins late

Back across to London this morning - taking advantage of the Air Berlin route from the Belfast Harbour to Stansted.

Boarding, take off and landing, all 15 minutes late. Consistent with Monday's experience - but a definite pattern of tardiness.

Upside was getting a free copy of the International Herald Tribune on the flight - in English, lots of international news, and very little mention of the World Cup.

Flight was only three quarters full.
