I was on BA1461, 0800 departure from Edinburgh on Friday. We were held on the ground at EDI for not much short of an hour and ended up getting into LHR 55 mins late. We were told the delay was due to abnormally strong jet stream so all the transatlantics had come in early. Suspect your issue was related to that so BA will cite weather-related.
