ILR priority delay

Hello all, I understand this question has probably been asked several times but I really need to understand what has been happening and if there are others like me on the same boat.
I applied for my Set (O) skilled worker ILR application priority service and got my Biometrics done on the 14th of March. It has been 5 working days already and I have had no communications from Home Office/UKVI at all. No documents requested, no mail informing me about any delay. I called UKVI and they said they can not escalate before 10 working days have passed. I have travels booked next week. Is there anyone else who has been through anything like this? And can be done to escalate this issue? Thank you

As you said, the torum is replete with this situation. It's patience you will exercise. There is no guarantee even for expedited service.
Caveat emptor: it's more like a rule of thumb not to schedule travels when not through with an Immigration and or naturalisation application. HO is renown for reordering applicant's schedule with no efforts.

DO NOT tag the same query all over the forum posts. The advice remains the same. Wait to hear back as there are NOT guarantees
