Answer
The original departure time from London is 19:00. With a delay of 2 hours, the new departure time is 21:00. The flying time from London to Johannesburg is 11 hours. Thus, the arrival time in Johannesburg is calculated as follows:
Departure time: 21:00 (London time)
Time difference (London to Johannesburg): +2 hours (DST included)
Arrival time in Johannesburg:
21:00+11 hours=08:00 on 11 May 2019 (Johannesburg time).
