Passenger numbers in March surged and boom in bookings is creating long delays over Easter holidays
Heathrow says it is increasing resources as fast as possible, as March proved to be the busiest month for passengers at the UK’s biggest airport since the pandemic began.
The west London airport, which is aiming to hire 12,000 staff to cope with an expected summer holiday boom, admitted that resources were “stretched” as a surge in bookings creates long delays over the Easter holiday period.
