..because if I have to speak to one more person I am going to lose my mind. It was supposed to take off at 3pm...I received the status txt to say it had taken off at 3.08pm....then my sister calls from the UK to say that the flight was delayed. It actually took off at 7.45. Now, my mother is on that flight, and I just want to know if they took off and came back....have they been sitting on the plane all this time waiting..??? I have called the airport, flight info...emirates themselves, and all I keep being told is that the flight took off at 7.45 over and over again. If anyone knows anything...please, might put my mind at rest...thanks x

Thanks Lucy, would appreciate that.... My mum is not very well, and was very worried about her flight today, and now knowing that she was sitting at the airport all day long, when I thought she was well on her way has made me feel sick.

Surely if it took off at 1945 then it's on its way to wherever it's going? Sorry i think I misunderstood - do you mean you're trying to find out whether the passengers were offloaded and then re-boarded due to the delay? Or if they sat on the plane on the tarmac from 1500-1945? <em>edited by GirlAnachronism on 02/04/2011</em>
