V-Flyer

I was wondering if anyone knew what the hold up is on VS 1 leaving LHR right now. My mom is scheduled to be on VS 2, and I was just trying to find out. Her father passed away in the UK Friday night, so quickly bought a ticket and that's what she's going over for. As you can imagine she's pretty upset, and I just discovered that they've swapped the flight out to a 340 and it's currently showing a 1h 50min delay. I was just hoping for some type of info to put her mind at ease that it's not going to end up canceling or anything.

No idea but I'm sure I speak for all in sharing the condolences of V-Flyer with your mum.

Thanks a lot... I'll pass that on to her.

Flight still hasn't left... says estimated out at 18.10, but 18.10 has come and gone... wonder what's going on at LHR...

It is still showing as 'last call' at 1835, on the T3 departure board.

There are quite a few serious transatlantic delays, but VS025 to JFK looks to have got off on time. [?]

All the best, at this difficult time webdes.

Update - taxied at 1829.

Airborne 1849.
