Heathrow bosses on Monday defended their response to a fire that shut down Europe’s busiest air hub for almost a day, after Britain's energy system operator suggested the airport had enough electricity from other sources to keep running.
More than 1,300 flights were canceled on Friday after a fire knocked out one of the three electrical substations that supply Heathrow with power. More than 200,000 passengers had journeys disrupted, and industry experts say the chaos will cost airlines tens of millions of dollars.
