No, it was reported as ATC capacity / staffing issues forcing them to use the FL80 escape routes.

In fact, the JBU285 flight mentioned by topic starter (Saturday 8th -not 11th-) , was one in a series of lower level 'escape routes':

Normal flights are around 70-75 minutes, the low level one's were about 90-95 minutes
