EK30 LHR to DXB just diverted to GLA after 55 mins in the air ... Seems very odd

Headed north immediately after departure so it’s as if it wasn’t a diversion as such. Maybe it’s picking up excess air freight or something?

Reminds us of that odd time a Gulf Air 787 popped in from LHR.

Our own A380 appears to be sick

EK30 was cancelled with LHR pax presumably being accommodated on the other three LHR-DXB flights tonight
