London’s Heathrow airport was forced to cancel some departures on Monday amid thick fog and freezing temperatures.
There may be “minor changes†to schedule as a result of poor visibility at the airport as well as across the southeast of England, a Heathrow spokesperson said. Airlines are working to rebook passengers on alternative services later in the day, with the fog expected to begin clearing at 10 am.
About 30 flights, or 5% of Heathrow’s departures, were cancelled, with British Airways being the most affected, according to data from tracking website FlightAware.
