The boss of Heathrow today insisted the “right decisions were taken by the right people” during the dramatic shutdown of the airport in March caused by an electricity substation fire.
It emerged in a May report into the devastating power outage that CEO Thomas Woldbye slept through the early stages of the drama despite two emergency notification calls and “several” phone calls from Heathrow’s chief operating officer, Javier Echave, in the early hours of the morning. He has since expressed his “deep regret” at being uncontactable.
