Report in the Guardian that she has had her passport returned and that a negotiating team are in place.

Too early for celebrations but I have got my fingers crossed behind my back.

Do look up media bias though, it's important to understand

I worked in the industry for over 30 years, I don’t need to look up anything. Or be patronised by someone like you.

ZT601 about to take off now

SockFluffInTheBath · 16/03/2022 16:54

Such lovely news. Her heart must have been pounding when the flight was delayed.

I keep watching the plane hoping it leaves without fuss. I know I’m worrying needlessly but why isn’t it taking off?

Thanks for that

Do you know what’s really sad? Some really great & happy news, in the middle of the shitstorm that’s been the last 2 years / 3 weeks, has to descend into bitterness & classism. Give it a fucking rest, for a day. Seriously. Even just until midnight.

It was a nice thread, until a certain stage.

An amazing moment to see Richard and Gabriella in Parliament on their way to greet Nazanin off the plane.

So glad they were able to make it to hear the outpouring of love and support from MPs from all parties in the Commons Chamber.

The plane is taxiing

Gorgeous photo- thanks for sharing!

ClaudineClare · 16/03/2022 17:02

BoreOfWhabylon what a beautiful picture. I hope the press is kept away when they are finally reunited with her.

Not due to depart until 18:30, or has it changed?

it seems to be taxi-ing to the runway
stillherenow · 16/03/2022 17:04

Maybe Richard Radcliffe should also apologise for his 'white privilege ' too?

I think not

Looks like her plane is taxi-ing to take off

Littlepaws18 · 16/03/2022 17:04

This is incredible news, sad to see the vipers out on force using their powers for evil- on what's meant to be an amazingly positive news story!

I suggest you listen to the podcast called Nazanin on radio 4 about her case and reasoning why hers is more well known than others and it's absolutely got nothing to do with ethnicity!

markusdam · 16/03/2022 17:05

18.30 is local time not uk time

Tippexy · 16/03/2022 17:05

Flight tracker says plant took off 13 mins ago

Cubangal · 16/03/2022 17:06

Yes, looks to me to be taxiing . Thank goodness

ssd · 16/03/2022 17:06

Thank god she's been released, that family have suffered far too long.

CaveMum · 16/03/2022 17:06

@Tippexy it was originally due to leave at 1830 local time but was pushed back due to delays in the flight leaving Tehran.

Tippexy · 16/03/2022 17:07

Looks like it’s lining up…

Spudlet · 16/03/2022 17:08

I thought I’d have to wait until I got back from work to see if she was safely in the air… turns out my clients had been following it too so I got updated by them! I am so glad that they are both in the air now and on the way home. And so relieved. I honestly thought they would never let her go.

Cubangal · 16/03/2022 17:09

I wonder what squawk 4742 is
