Heathrow Airport Shuts Down After Fire Causes Major Power Outage. Heathrow Airport, the world’s second-busiest, is closed all day Friday after a fire at a nearby electrical substation cut off its power supply. Officials warn of significant disruption in the coming days and have urged passengers not to travel to the airport under any circumstances until further notice. According to Flightradar24, over 1,300 flights could be cancelled today alone. The fallout is expected to affect air travel well beyond Heathrow. The fire in Hayes also left nearly 5,000 homes without power, with 150 people evacuated. The cause of the blaze remains unknown, and investigations are ongoing.
