NATS air traffic control technical issue

Following Tuesday's technical issue affecting NATS air traffic control, Heathrow is operating as normal today and our airport systems are functioning as expected. We continue to work closely with airlines to support their recovery, and while the vast majority of flights are operating as scheduled, there may still be some changes to airline timetables. We know the knock-on effects of Tuesday's disruption have been frustrating, and we thank those affected for their patience. Passengers should check with their airline for the latest flight information before travelling to Heathrow.
