UVF (St Lucia) tomorrow 21/10

A bit of an odd one... I booked a last minute trip to St Lucia last week as something to look forward to. However when I go to check-in online, while its says online check-in is open when I actually try to check-in it says Im too early. Though the flight leaves at 10... Worse still, manage my booking shows the flight as cancelled! The GGL confirms its operating still, though the shuttle to GND is cancelled, so ought to be reassured...but, I cant help but be a little nervous!

ba.com is showing as cancelled due to ATC restrictions

As the OP has already identified previously, only the UVF-GND-UVF part is cancelled. LGW-UVF-LGW is still operating. G-VIIV.

Yes, and Ive now found on track my flight that info too...I assume the fact that both sectors have the same flight number is what upsets ba.com and the app?

The app/ba.com cannot cope with one leg of a multi leg flight being cancelled. LGW-UVF will be fine. GND isnt available at the moment for widebody ops.

I read that the reason for GND being out of action is due to a firefighting foam supply issue:

theres a NOTAM for d/graded fire cover , your detailed reason sounds about right. Narrow bodied ops only.
