"Since the incident, our teams have worked tirelessly to ensure a speedy recovery. Now we can safely resume flights, giving priority to the repatriation and relocation of aircraft," the message says.
They also recommended that when planning a flight today, contact the airline to get the latest flight information before heading to the airport.
An explosion at a substation occurred the day before, as a result of which the electricity was cut off at Heathrow Airport. In this regard, the air harbor was closed until midnight on March 21.
