Qantas rejigs London Heathrow flights
Qantas Airways has rearranged its flight schedules at London Heathrow due to the daily passenger caps the chaos-hit airport has imposed.
Qantas brought forward the departure of the London-Singapore flight on Tuesday by nine hours.
It also delayed Sunday’s London-Perth flight by three hours.
Other flight revisions are possible at Heathrow between now and September, Qantas warns.
“We have two flights a day to London, and we want to preserve them at all costs given people’s travel plans are at stake,” Qantas said.
“We’ve managed to negotiate a workaround that isn’t perfect but will get our customers to their destination.”
“We continue to work with Heathrow on improving this situation.”
OAG estimates this summer’s passenger caps would cost over $US500 million in lost airline revenue.
