OPINION
In March 2025, London’s Heathrow airport lost power due to a fire at a substation. The entire airport, all five terminals, was closed for a whole day; 1,300 short-haul flights (and 120 long-haul flights) were cancelled, redirected or turned back. The cost has been estimated at “several hundred million pounds.”
