I have called British Airways regarding a flight yesterday from Abuja, Nigeria to London Heathrow 2 find out if a close freind of mine had made this flight and, lo and behold, they cant divulge that information due 2 our countrys fucked up Data Protection Act!!!!!

Just pretend you're a burnt-out cop on their last assingnment before retiring. You also have a new, young, ruggedly handome smartarse partner who is already at the airport without telling you. he will find out your 'good friend' is actually an arms dealer and you will be shot by him before he is shot by your partner but you will survive.

If you know the flight number, call the airline who can tell you the arrival time (some planes arrive early, on time or late).

Or you will just have to wait for a phone call.

you could have called the person before they were about to leave to ask if they were planning on flying to london. You could then have them call you when they get in.

Or you could take Luv4u's advice and arrive at the airport when the flight is supposed to land.

Or you could call the person when you think they're suppose to arrive.

the end.

I think it's up to the airline's discretion. I've been told details when I've had a flight number and arrival time, but that was before 911 so I don't know if things have changed. But I was at the airport waiting, which may have made a difference. It's quite comforting to know that they won't divulge the information if you're just calling to enquire really. But that doesn't help you. Sorry - no other ideas apart from calling your friend or their relatives to check he/she got on the flight.
