Airport admits it is struggling to cope with surge in demand and its new staff are ‘not yet up to full speed’
Heathrow has asked airlines to stop selling summer tickets and imposed a daily limit of 100,000 passengers departing the airport, as it struggles to cope with the surge in demand.
Heathrow and other airports have experienced chaotic scenes in recent weeks, with massive queues amid shortages of ground staff, and airlines have cancelled hundreds of flights.
