    I would not concern myself with today's flights as they will be no indicator of what might happen next Thursday

    As Lucylucky says the fact that todays flight went is no indicator that tomorrow's or Thursday's flights will operate.

    The 1pm flight today, however, did operate but landed 29 mins late at MAD.

    Why don't you look at Madrid Airport's website and see how many flights are arriving/departing? When we were stranded in Los Angeles we was constantly on the Heathrow website to keep up to date.

    It matters not which Thursday the point is today's schedule is of no relevance to any other day.

    When you look at the departures many of them say excessive delay > 45 mins.
