YouTube Description
as posted by the channelAll flights to and from London Heathrow have been cancelled today due to a fire at a nearby electricity substation. Passengers are being warned to stay away, with more than 1,300 journeys expected to be cancelled.
Simon Calder is travel correspondent at The Independent. He says those travelling on a British or European airline such as British Airways or Virgin Atlantic should be entitled to help from their airline such as being put up in a hotel, meals and help to get to their destination as soon as possible.
However, for those flying in from outside Europe on airlines such as Qatar airlines, Emirates or Delta, the airline is under no obligation to look after affected passengers.
