(The former error is indeed because I confused the outbound / inbound flights. I've taken BA286 quite a few times, but I forgot which direction was which. When I was initially fixing the article I thought it was "BA286" but then looked it up and found it was "287". I then fixed the error in the screenshot but forgot to fix the error in the text itself. Apologies the edit introduced annoying little errors — this is entirely on me trying to do fix something quickly.)
>"LHR/GMT¥8: the arrival airport, LHR, which is in the GMT time zone, which is 8 hours ahead of the origin airport"
Why exactly is the Yen sign used at the destination? Why would this not warrant an explanation?
By convention, large airlines typically number their flights so that even-and-odd numbered pairs operate between the same two cities.
For example, QF49 flies MEL-SFO and QF50 flies SFO-MEL.
