A Virgin Atlantic flight bound for London was forced to return to Antigua after Heathrow Airport unexpectedly closed late last night.
The aircraft, carrying 234 passengers and crew, landed safely at V.C. Bird International Airport around 4 a.m. The closure, caused by a major power outage, has affected Terminals 2 and 4 and left over 5,000 homes nearby without electricity.
Airport officials have suspended operations for Friday, disrupting more than 1,350 flights. Virgin Atlantic has cancelled all Heathrow services until at least 5:30 p.m. EST on March 21 and advised passengers to avoid the airport. British Airways has issued a similar warning.

Imagine thinking you reach London, only to turn back same way.
At least Everybody was safe and sound
If i was on that flight i would be so mad… Somebody would have to compensate me for my time.
So the didn’t have that information before the took off?
I would rather be safe than sorry. If the captain had carried on knowing there was danger, then I would be mad .
The fire was really bad, thousands of people lost power to their homes .
Thank goodness, so far we haven’t heard of fatalities.
I wonder how far the plane was when it had to turn back. That’s crazy
Waw. What a calamity
Wow, you have to be very careful when flying these days.
