    Operating out of LHR, they're a bit more constrained with their flexibility and disruption recovery, hence you sometimes say what appear to be 'drastic' measures despite the situation calming.

    Plus if it's windy at LHR they may have to increase spacing between landing aircraft so with a runway operating at 99% capacity it means cancellations. Usually BA give priority to long haul and cancel short haul/domestic first.

    I guess one of the new benefits for BA is that they can now easily transfer passengers onto Aer Lingus flights

    LHR introduced Time Based Separation last year for such conditions, I can't remember the figures but it was expected to reduce delays in windy conditions by around 20%.

    I'm a bit late with this one, but passing over Dublin eastbound last night around 20:40 was A359 A7-ALA of Qatar Airways heading to Doha

    I've only seen an A350 once so far, returning over NI from cold-weather testing in Iceland a couple of years ago.

    Yeah that 747 is in the other RWY.

    Delays not too severe currently, but building up.

    Wind at DUB only 23kts no gusts, strange one.

    Remember the Stobart that took flight at a gate in SNN a few years ago with a gust of 79kts? EI-BYO.

    Just landed from prague a few hours ago, odd landing. Flight was grand but the landing kept getting smacked by the odd gust of wind from every direction.

    What was odd about the landing?
