Flight was originally planned to take the longer route back to London, but one of the three pilots went down with food poisoning overnight so due to the flying hours limit we had to land at LCA and switch aircraft with a new crew. BA scrambled an Airbus A321 Neo to Cyprus this afternoon to pick us up, we’re now in the process of boarding, everyone crammed 3-3 into economy seats.

Currently due to land at 21:15 (3+ hours after schedule), but we’re still boarding and have missed our 18:40 departure. Also been told our luggage is not on board and will follow tomorrow afternoon.

Yay!
Oddly similar to this from a few days ago https://www.flyertalk.com/forum/36154193-post136.html
