| Flights back to normal in Britain |
| 2006-08-18 |
| LONDON - Flights were virtually back to normal on Thursday at major British airports a week after police thwarted an alleged plot to put Islamist suicide bombers on US-bound planes. “We should be back to a full service by Friday,” said a spokesman for British Airways, the biggest carrier out of Heathrow, which Thursday was focusing its attention on sorting out baggage lost in the chaos. It was using trucks and freighter planes to return bags to some 5,000 affected travellers, and “we are looking to get all bags reunited with passengers by close of play,” the spokesman said. |
