BA Cancellations Today/Tomorrow

I can't think that the weather has caused 6 out of 7 BA GLA-LHR flights to be cancelled today and 4 out of 7 tomorrow but only 1 out of 5 yesterday (Edinburgh has a similar numbers of cancellations)
Might be crewing logistics as not many aircraft actually diverted from LHR last Friday

Combination of the storms moving into Europe and subsequent delays caused by low arrival rates at LHR etc.
From BA’s twitter feed it looks like they were having problems offloading baggage from aircraft on Friday and Saturday morning due to the winds.

See my trip report once prepared. We flew Saturday eveningLHR-ABZ with a three hour forty minute delay. Landslide and airside chaotic with security agent walking off the job mid shift!
No managers at all; don’t ever fly through LHR on a mid term holiday.

Or any other time if at all possible, IMO.

Cancelled pretty much all domestics to protect the long haul flights.

BA’s IT systems have had their semi regular failure last night. As a result all short haul ex LHR cancelled till at least midday today.
