Delta flight from London Heathrow to New York JFK has declared an emergency and is going to divert.

The flight DL4 departed today from London Heathrow at 16:45 GMT to New York.

The crew declared an emergency (squawk 7700) after about 2 hours of flight, while cruising over Atlantic at 34,000ft.

The flight is operated by a 25-year-old Boeing 767 (registration N825MH).

The airline is confirming the flight has diverted.

UPDATE #1
The flight is holding 10,000ft which could suggest a pressurization issue or a lower altitude to burn more fuel in order to reduce the weight.

UPDATE #2
Flight DL4 is diverting to Shannon.

UPDATE #3
The Boeing 767 has landed on runway 06 at Shannon Airport.

UPDATE #4
The aircraft has vacated the runway, escorted by fire engines. Now stopped on taxiway for hot brakes inspection.

UPDATE #5
The plane is now at the gate.

UPDATE #6
The crew reported a mechanical issue with flight deck window heat.
