No it is not due to remain at LCY. Just noticed on a thread on airliners.net that the aircraft is due to depart LCY today for it's first trial flight across the atlantic.
The aircraft is due to depart LCY as BA9152C at 12:50 arriving SNN 14:15 once refuelled and those onboard have cleared immigration in SNN the flight is due to depart SNN 15:00 at arrive JFK 17:15 local. Which is the same schedule that BA001 will operate once the service starts. The aircraft is then expected to return to LCY from JFK the same evening arriving LCY on Wednesday.
