Monday 9 January 2023 sees DL41 from LAX down to SYD with A359 N505DN arriving at a mooted 0905 hours, half an hour late.

A359 NS18DZ on DL41, the 2225 hours Wednesday 1 March 2023 LAX-SYD is on Friday 3 having to hold (like many other aircraft) offshore from Sydney so estimated gate arrival is 0-928 hours, 53 late. There's some rain around but no fog from what BOM says. This will probably delay the returning flight to LAX.

I was on DL40 departing Saturday (SYD-LAX); only 45 minutes late into LAX but that doesn't tell the whole story. We had a medical emergency onboard and started diverting towards HNL. About an hour or two after the re-route, the captain announced the diversion was no longer required and we would proceed to LAX. Although it was never announced as such, it later became clear this was because the passenger in distress had passed away.

I was on DL40 (SYD-LAX) departing Saturday 23 Dec. The flight was only 45 minutes late into LAX which isn't notable on its own, however if you check the radar you can see we tracked towards HNL for a time. This was due to a medical emergency , however the diversion was later cancelled and we proceeded to LAX. It became clear this was because the passenger in distress had unfortunately passed away.
