The company has not yet disclosed what is wrong or the time that is expected to continue.
Heathrow said he is trying to solve this problem on Sunday.
I apologized to those who faced delay, but emphasized that “the majority of flights are continuously operated.” Before you travel to the airport, check your flight status and urge you to arrive at a good time.
The BBC knows that British Airways continued to operate normally at the airport using a backup system, but most other airlines were influenced by power outages.
According to the Flight Tracker FlightAway, there was a few hours of line on Saturday and about 47%of Heatrow’s departure flights. An additional staff was in a check -in area to minimize the interruption.
Naomi Rowan, a sudbury in Sudpuck, had to move to Costa Rica with Dusty, after the AIR France flight in Heathrow, on Saturday, to Costa Rica with Dusty.

Dublin Airport said the Cork Airport, which was previously owned by the same parent company, experienced a “minor influence” due to cyber attacks, but Cork airports had no difficulty in operating all services normally.
Berlin Brandonburg Airport is asking a traveler to use online or self -service check -in instead of a desk during the interruption.
There were 12 cancellations inside and outside the airport on Saturday. But the delay was generally less than 45 minutes.
