Delayed!!

So I awoke this morning to my virgin app going off and telling me we are delayed for 1:30. But the poor peeps on the vs027 have a 2 hour delay.

A friend is on the VS27 to MCO and they have 2 hour delay due to late inbound aircraft. The later MCO is also late due to late inbound aircraft. But theyvehad no explanation as to why it was late leaving MCO

Think G-VROY is still stuck in MCO due to cargo door problem reported on another thread, therefore a LHR 744 (FAB) has been operating from MAN and LGW (VS 15 today) for the past couple of days to MCO but the knock on delay from bringing that aircraft on to the route is still making some flights late. Today there are five flights to MCO from GLA MAN and LGW so must be a real headache trying to sort out which flight to put the LHR 744 on due to its lower capacity. Couldn't have come at a worse time at easter just when every flight is full

Simon Calder reported this delay on the BBC morning news just after 7am this morning.

Does anyone know why the VS075 from yesterday (02 Apr) was delayed by 4 hours?

or indeed why Surfer Girls didnt start the 200 until after 1.00 this morning, how did it get over the LHR night time curfew?

There isn't a curfew just a very limited quota for flights arriving and departing between 23.00 and 06.00
