It was delayed until 1500 today then 2130 and on the app it now says 1500 again but I am not sure if that’s today or tomorrow.
They need to be back by Tuesday as their Dad / Grandfathers funeral is then . Travelling as married couple and adult son .
The app says 1500 + 2 (from the 22nd) which is tomorrow (24th). So arriving back on Monday morning (25th).

At the moment!!

Correct. The return time and date is as identified for the time being. The fault had occurred on the LHR SCL leg, was cleared then reoccurred on the SCL LHR leg so further fault finding and a replacement the likely fix unless Boeing/Honeywell come back with a miracle fix.

Glad to hear they’ve been rebooked and condolences for the reasons they are embarking on the journey.

Just to tidy up for anyone else reading who was on or has anyone they know on this disrupted service, it has finally obtained a loaned part and on the way to LHR. It got going in the end.
