Default Singapore Airlines Fuel Rationing from Heathrow

Can't believe it fly out on the 10th January with Singapore from Heathrow and now we're likely going to have to take a detour via Frankfurt.

An extra 1 3/4 hours on the plan. It's bad enough being stuck in the same plan for the standard journey time let alone extra.

Look on the bright side. Qantas are detouring to Stansted (from Heathrow) for the same reason but I doubt that they'll be airborne long enough to even allow the wheels to be retracted. This will also add 2 hours to the trip.

Look on the bright side: if the "plan" ran out of fuel over India you'd be even more delayed!

Its only one out of the three daily flights that is diverting to Frankfurt, the other two flights will be non-stop
