There was a similar query yesterday: https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/brit...lgw-today.html
Thanks. That's helpful.

Just spoke to BA (through immediately on the Gold line so things are getting better there at least) and they told me the flight is going to land at 2115... which it clearly isn't... But they have no idea whether that will put the crew out of hours.

I completely understand that cancelling the whole rotation would be better but competence can not be assumed with BA at the moment unfortunately. I've decreased my wager down to £10 (50/50 odds) but I still reckon there is a significant chance that we won't fly.
