The London underground has signs apologising for your inconvenience just about everyday. As far as I know, most service providers post the same message when things go wrong.

natway09 Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 Daytime flights would be no problem or have they lost all their electricity & the generators won't start ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KhunBENQ Posted May 3, 2018 Share Posted May 3, 2018 As seen in the other thread the problem was fixed yesterday morning. It was not a total power outage but a specific failure for the runway lighting and hangars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was closed at 7.20 pm and re-opened at 0800, so nothing to do with daytime flights.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
