Folks, here’s the deal. Heathrow Airport, a major hub, is CLOSED. Closed all day Friday.
Why? A big fire near the airport knocked out the power. And without power, well, planes can’t fly safely. It’s like trying to bake a cake without an oven. Not gonna happen.
Don’t Even Think About Going There!
Seriously, Heathrow is saying: “Don’t come to the airport. ” I repeat DO NOT GO TO THE AIRPORT. I know, travel plans are a pain when they get messed up. But trust me, you don’t want to be stuck in that mess.
You wouldn’t show up to a restaurant that’s closed for a kitchen fire, right? Same deal here.
Millions Affected. .. Seriously.
Heathrow is HUGE. Millions of people travel through there every month. Last February? A record breaker! And last year? Even bigger!
Yeah, this closure is a big deal. We’re talking potentially hundreds of thousands of travelers and over a thousand flights thrown into chaos. Yikes.
What Happened?
The fire? It started at an electrical place in West London. Firefighters got it under control. Thankfully!
But the power’s still out. And until it’s back on, Heathrow stays closed.
Bottom Line?
Check your flights. Contact your airline. Be prepared for delays and changes. This is gonna be a bumpy ride for a lot of people.
And most importantly? Stay safe!
