Narrative:

We were delayed out of mia due to WX. After takeoff, we began service in business class. 1/2 way through, the purser informed us we were landing in jax due to a mechanical problem. 'No need to prepare for emergency landing' she said. We completed our service due to the length of delay, and passenger were hungry. We found out we were going to mia instead. We circled and dumped fuel. We landed without incident.
