My flight from EWR was delayed and no reason was provided. I got to London almost an hour later and missed my connection flight.


Noe from United Kingdom (British Airways BA 188 Flight delay)
August 6, 2022, 2:58 pm

Arrived at final destination at later than 12:35 (where the original arrival time was 9:35) The pilot told us at EWR that it was the quickest option to not get a new plane and to try and fix the plane (however the plane was already delayed due to a reason not told to us in addition to them fixing the plane) The airline provided us with beverages and snacks while we waited in the plane to be fixed The inconvenience caused is that I had to miss a half day of work instead of being able to start working the same day as I arrived. No money was lost
