It came through at 23:01 hrs, and I did my update 30 minutes before that. Normally if that is happening they are trying to get some replacement but it doesn't work out / doesn't update until late on. For BA85 G-YMMK, she started from B39 and ended back at C62. She has been stuck on the YVR rotation for a while.
It wasn't the only one, even later at 23:38 BA247 GRU, a A35K aircraft, was also cancelled but I don't think they had started boarding there. In fact it doesn't look like they could find an aircraft to run that service. Today's (Thursday) BA143 to DEL has already been canned.
So in order to help future searches:
Wednesday 4 June 2025
BA247 GRU = TECY
BA85 YVR = TECY
