Interesting happenings out here in Hong Kong with Typhoon Vicente blowing through overnight virtually closing the airport. Cancellations, delays and diversions all over the place. Not a good couple of days to be flying out here as the backlog will be horrendous.
On the HKG-LHR corridor, both of the Cathay flights last night were cancelled, as was the Virgin flight. The BA flights are delayed until today. Air New Zealand are delayed by round 3 hours at the moment. Things will get moving soon though as the winds ease.

For those of you with a penchant for these sort of things, below is the TAF for HKG at the moment.
