"AEQP Changed to AR8" means that the aircraft equipment, i.e. the type of aircraft, was changed to an Avro RJ85, which is a bit odd, as the RJ85 is the normal type for LH 4061, according to the LH timetable. It looks as though Lufthansa may routinely confirm the aircraft type by issuing a "change" event. It doesn't seem relevant to the cancellation. > So... What was the correct reason for flight cancellation ? Apparently because there was no aircraft in Florence for the flight, as the outward flight LH 4060 was also cancelled. Flightstats.com shows that flight being delayed a couple of times before being cancelled at 13:30. That meant that they had to cancel LH 4061 as well. There's no indication on flightstats.com of why LH 4060 was cancelled. > and how do I find it out ? Ask Lufthansa. -- Richard J. (to email me, swap 'uk' and 'yon' in address)
