From the BBC in article Queen Elizabeth II's personal touches in plans for funeral day:

The skies over London will be quiet during the two-minute silence, as Heathrow airport stops all departures and arrivals for 30 minutes from 11:40.Separate changes to operations at the airport will ensure silence overhead during the ceremonies in Windsor.
There is a committal service in Windsor at 16:00, and then a final private burial service at 19:30 (also in Windsor).

Simon Calder has given some additional details:

No movements at LHR between 11.40am - 12.15pm
No arrivals allowed between 1.45pm & 2.20pm during the procession of Her Majesty's Hearse
No departures between 3.05pm - 4.45pm (he states the corresponding inbound flights will also be grounded - some guidance needed on exact meaning of that)
Flight paths post 4.45pm will be diverted away from Windsor Castle

This is probably an unpopular opinion and I have the utmost respect for those mourning, but given all the recent upsets with travel from Heathrow, is it really fair to throw this disruption into the mix? The queen was a very admirable woman who kept her post for an extraordinary long time, but I know very few people under the age of 35 who would agree it makes sense to stop the whole country for her funeral. This could very well be the last time Heathrow stops flights for the death of a monarch given how attitudes are changing.

Given the primary purpose of the thread is to help guide those whose BA travel plans may be affected, I would suggest that this and other similar side-discussions are best played out elsewhere.

Usual health caution when using planned times. An event like this, especially one with a significant road transport element, can easily run behind schedule. And things can change between easterlies and westerlies. Simon Calder has obviously seen something referring to westerly ops (which to be fair is forecast).

We're on the 19:05 to Delhi. Presumably should be OK unless there are issues for the incoming flight? Hmm. Keeping a keen eye on this thread in the meantime!

This is what Sky is reporting:

Heathrow is adjusting its schedule for the day of the Queen's funeral, meaning 180 flights will be affected - including more than 100 which will be cancelled.

• No aircraft movements between 11.40am and 12.10pm to support the two-minute silence at the end of the funeral
• No arrivals between 1.45pm and 2.40pm during the procession of the Queen's hearse
• No departures between 3.05pm and 4.45pm during the ceremonial procession via the Long Walk to Windsor Castle
• Reduced departures between 4.45pm and 9pm during the committal service at St George's Chapel.

Had two cancellation emails for flights on Monday afternoon and evening, yay.

If the restrictions talked about above are correct I imagine a double digit percentage of the LHR schedule is about to get taken out.

Arriving around 9.30ish which should be ok, but I'm on a connecting flight around 12.30 which sounds a bit close for comfort...

I want my flight to get cancelled. Come on BA! I’d also happily volunteer my spot on my non cancelled flight for others if it meant a free change.
