A British Airways flight from Las Vegas to London Heathrow experienced a powerful jet stream due to Storm Eowyn, allowing it to achieve a speed of 814mph, effectively reducing its flight time by about one hour. This rare weather phenomenon has been linked to a red weather warning from the Met Office, indicating dangerous wind speeds. As jet streams tend to be stronger in winter, they often lead to more storm formation and can significantly impact airline operations, as evidenced by the recent record speed of 835mph recorded for other flights due to similar conditions.
A British Airways flight experienced a strong jet stream that enabled it to significantly reduce its flight time and reach speeds of 814mph.
