@HeathrowAirport People running with their luggage in the roads. Shameful

Due to a technical issue, the Central Terminal Area tunnel to Terminals 2 and 3 is currently closed. Please use public transport to Terminal 5, where train services are available to all other terminals. We’re working hard to resolve the issue and apologise for the disruption.

What a mess at Heathrow. Problems with the tunnel going to terminal three so traffic was backed up as everyone had to go around to other terminals and take the subway to three. Very little communication as to where to go. We managed to make our way in spite of the chaos.

@adamclarkitv @HeathrowAirport Only one I took. Luckily I’ll make my flight. I imagine lots won’t. You can use this one or the earlier one I posted telling Heathrow to do better.

Hey @HeathrowAirport - do better!! Utter chaos today. No staff helping massive amounts of confused, stressed passengers. #heathrow #travelchaos

30 minutes after getting off Heathrow Express at Terminal 2 and only just passed the ticket barriers. No announcements from staff. Sweltering heat and going nowhere fast #Heathrow #chaos

It’s now 6am. Now in the tent by the terminal, which is slow to get through. That’s 42 minutes of the Birmingham Airport security queue so far #birminghamairportqueue @bhx_official

Just joined the Birmingham Airport security queue. It’s 5.18am - let’s see how quickly we get through. Don’t have fast track. I’ll do the job that the @bhx_official comms team don’t. Awful for anybody elderly, with a disability, kids or if it was raining #birminghamairportqueue
