The delay follows pressure from Mr Justice Chamberlain, who has called for clarity on the flight schedules.
The timetable has been impacted by the upcoming general election, with the earliest flight now set for nearly three weeks after polling day.
As legal challenges mounted, it was revealed that at least 24 individuals have been released from detention since April, and more legal actions are anticipated.
The outcome of these challenges could potentially reach the Supreme Court, primarily depending on the general election results.
The relocation scheme, championed by the Conservatives and criticized by other political parties, is intended to deter illegal crossings of the English Channel.
