Budget airline sewing a yarn?

Here's the scenario... Flight is meant to go from Stansted this morning to a Spanish destination. Intended aircraft landed at Gatwick due to fog at Stansted. OK so far.

Passengers at Stansted are told that the aircraft can get out of Gatwick, but needs a "software update" to enable it to land at Stansted. Apparently, they're not sure if it can be done and they may have to bus the passengers down to gatwick.

Forgive my ignorance, simple GA pilot here, but what on earth could this software update be? Or, is it cheaper to use the bus and just baffle pax with B/S ?
