Stay tuned, you will know in the next episode.
Never a dull moment.

PS : BTW, what is that flight number SN1451 to Toronto. Looks like a corrective 451 to Douala.
And the next episode has a happy ending. Two extra flights this morning:
- SN1402 coming from JFK operated by OO-SFW
- SN1452 coming from Toronto operated by OO-SFN

When back to Brussels, the flight SN371 was already rescheduled with departure at 2:40 pm.
Probably medical emergency or some other problem with a passenger or just a check?
SN3738 AGP-BRU delayed by 45 min. while checked-in luggage, from 2 no-show pax at the gate, needed to be removed from the plane. Passengers on this flight had already observed a couple behaving in a drunk and unruly manner, while queueing for the luggage check-in. The plane left Malaga without the couple and their luggage...
Yesterday evening 27 July, Flight SN2049 BRU-BHX operated by Cityjet SSJ100 EI-FWF squawked 7700 just prior to landing (normally? ) in Birmingham. Any idea why?
The aircraft came back from BHX this morning, apparently without problem, albeit half an hour late.
Air Transat flight TS157 from Brussels was scheduled to arrive in Montreal at 3:15 p.m. ET Monday, but was diverted to Ottawa after circling east of Montreal due to thunderstorms.
The flight landed at the Ottawa airport just after 5 p.m. ET, after more than eight hours of flying time. It then sat on the tarmac for six hours, and passengers weren't allowed to get off.
Laura Mah, who was on board, spoke to CBC News as they waited. "The plane actually lost power and went zero AC [air conditioning], and then now we've got the doors open and one kid is puking, and people are just losing their minds," she said.
"They're just getting mad, saying 'This is not all right, this is not OK, you can't do this to us.' The police are in here and the fire department's in here and they're telling us that they can't do anything, that we just have to stay put."
One of the passengers called 911, Mah said.
Paramedics arrived and handed out water to the stranded, hot passengers.
The flight finally left Ottawa at about 11 p.m. ET and landed at about 11:30 ET, eight hours and 15 minutes late.

And they have finally left for Brussels, with a delay of 42 hours.
ETA: around 16h
TUI has also decided that they will pay 400 euro to each passenger. Although they try to give the impression they make a gesture, this is what they are obliged to do as far as I know.

130 passengers blocked at Dubrovnik, Croatia who were expected to fly at 9:45 this morning with flight HQ1237 of TCAB. But due to a technical problem aboard YL-BBQ (again and again), they couldn't fly! http://www.rtl.be/info/vous/temoignages ... 43806.aspx
When Flightradar24 is correct, the aircraft wasn't stranded at Dubrovnik, but at Brussels. The outgoing HQ-1236 was cancelled too.

Half of the passengers have been rebooked on a scheduled SN A320 (flying in place of the usual A319) currently en-route to Brussels.

I got 400 EUR compensation for a delay of 5h30 from Faro (see page 13 of this topic).
Did TUI give it automatically or did you have to insist?
I filled in the complaint form, and got a reply saying that they will pay the 400 EUR per person I asked for.
To be honest, I did not receive the amount yet, I would get it by end-September.
