Today’s British Airways flight has left London and is expected to land in Bermuda at 6.30 p.m.

It is the first flight by BA to the Island since planes were grounded last Thursday after worldwide schedules were disrupted due to ash pouring from a volcanic eruption in Iceland.

The BA outbound to London is due to leave just after 8.00 p.m.
