British Airways breaks record for fastest ever New York to London flight as Storm Ciara continues to rage
An overnight flight from New York to London is likely to have broken the fastest-ever crossing time after reaching speeds of more than 800mph.
The flight took just four hours and 56 minutes, according to Flightradar24.
A 200mph jet stream hurtled towards the UK, pushing the plane to record breaking speeds.
It departed JFK at airport on Saturday and reached Heathrow at 11.20pm.
This is while flights travelling in the opposite direction were more than two hours longer than usual.
Speaking to the Independent, a BA spokesperson said: 'We always prioritise safety over speed records, but our highly trained pilots made the most of the conditions to get customers back to London well ahead of time.'
