Jenbel,
Can you remove me from the "stuck" list please. BA102 left YYC and hung around high over Manchester for a while then diverted to CDG. On the ground we were told we were going to stay overnight, before we disembarked they told us we might get into LHR as airspace was opening and crew had JUST enough hours left. We refuelled and went after * below.

Now sitting in LHR hotel with a pint in front of me waiting for food!! ^^

Well done BA and the crew!

[*near mutiny from a few frenchies who wanted to get off in Paris but were denied as luggage removal would have delayed the whole flight, but that is another story and was dealt with well by the crew]
