The 1h 55m flight had some light shaking around the halfway point. Nothing spilled, nobody panicked. Just normal flying.
Leisure traveler · January
There was some noticeable movement over the channel that made me grip the armrest. My seatmate (clearly a regular) didn't even look up from their book. Perspective.
First-time flyer · June
Some light chop near the coast — seatbelt sign came on for maybe 20 minutes but nothing to worry about. Typical for this route in January.
