A major international airline has accused Heathrow of 'plucking' figures from thin air while refusing to cut its flight numbers.
Emirates Airlines accused the airport of having a "blatant disregard" for customers after it capped passenger numbers to 100,000 departing per day over summer.
The airline said Heathrow now faced "an 'airmageddon' situation due to their incompetence and non-action".
