Heathrow Airport says it is fully operational after yesterday's closure | BBC News

Heathrow Airport has said it's "fully operational" after it was closed for almost all of Friday following a fire at an electricity substation.

Although, there are still disruption and cancellations. At least nine flights scheduled to land this morning have already been cancelled.

The London Fire Brigade says the fire is believed to be non-suspicious, and that the investigation will focus on the "electrical distribution equipment".

Heathrow's chief executive, Thomas Woldbye, said he's proud how the airport responded to the incident, and said "no comment" when asked if he should keep his job.
