Do you think it is more fuel economic to circle for over 2 hours or to land at GLA and then hope over once EDI is open again? Take off is such a huge fuel burn!
We're still on the ground at LHR.
Haven't pushed back.
Captain has said it's a sit and wait job.

Has also said he wants home too but has to fly back down tonight.

No mention as yet as to when they all run out of hours!!
