Well they can afford to pay the missus a butt-load for being stuck.  At United they dont get paid until they have closed the doors and started taxiing even though they have to check-in for briefing 2 hours prior (remember that next time you ask for a pre-flight drink) and the flight clock stops when they check-in at their hotel at the other end.  They then go onto a lower rate for their layover until they close the doors on the return flight and taxi out when they go back onto flying pay rates.  She also gets a hotel and $80/day for expenses.  Additionally she is guaranteed the flight hour pay for the 2 flights she should have worked since she got stuck even though she is still being paid for the first flight (plus daily expenses)  Awesome!

She's buying dinner when she gets back  ;D ;D ;D

What I dont understand is if they wont let them land then why let any planes actually fly over the UK at all.

Looks like BAW84 is setting down in Dublin......followed by a frantic grab for the luggage and `off to the ferry terminal! ::)

Edit:.....or maybe not; they`re heading for North Wales now! ;D

ReEdit: They`re heading right for my house now; going outside to see if I can see the plane`s nav. lights. ;D

That flight from Vancouver has been  around and around the Isle of Man, and now  as you say Debs is flying over North Wales.  He must be getting low on fuel by now, so the authorities must let him land ::) ::)

This BA flight Callsign BAW74 is still circling Guernsey / North West France 1 hour after I first noted it! :( :o :o

Yet another BA flight that has been challenged tonight, with thousands of wasted gallons of fuel, extra CO2 emissions, hundreds of disgruntled passengers, a very upset Willie Walsh, and much political fall out to come! :'( :'( :'(

What!  BA flight Callsign BAW84 has yet again done a U turn, near Birmingham this time, and is heading North West for the untold time!! :o :o :o

Does anyone know how much fuel would now be left on this plane from Vancouver? :-/ :-/

PS Remember this flight was first noted circling the Isles of Man at 1929 this evening; almost two hours ago, after flying to that point from Vancouver! :o :o
