Hello Dennis, this might explain it. I would say we will see a lot more of these flights in coming months.

Sometimes depending on how flightplans are filed, FR24 can have some interesting apparent routings.

I guessed that it probably wasn't carrying passengers. It didn't appear to have touched down.

I've seen several Emirates A380's in the past week or so. I'm about 5-6 miles from Heathrow, and depending on the runway in use, they climb out over my house. Not seeing them for a long time, they seem much noisier now.
