The upside of having a BA Engineering base on site. They were able to continue after repairs to an unspecified technical fault. The aircraft turned back initially over the Outer Hebrides after a couple of circuits of Stornoway before descending to Glasgow.

Air India 787-8 with Azamara cruise liners crew (apparently). Due 0800L. No idea when the ships will sail out of KGV docks though.
Due quarantine regulations, it must be the crew(s) of the other two vessels
