Mushrif A 3 Report post Posted February 20, 2011 According to MH's website, the flight came back to DEL and was on the ground for less than 2 hrs and then, left again for KUL, with a rescheduled time of arrival around midnite tonight. Interestingly, MH labeled it as a "retimed" - no balls to ever call any late flights a "delay". I'm hard pressed to recall when MH calls a late flight a "delay".

Sanjay Thaker 0 Report post Posted February 20, 2011 Isn't "retimed" a very popular term used by most airlines these days? You'd see plenty of it on the FIDS at the budget terminal too. But I hardly ever see "Delayed" anymore Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
