British Airways hit by ‘technical issues’ as flights delayed

British Airways has revealed its flights at Heathrow Airport are being affected by a “technical issue”.

The airline apologised and said it is investigating the ongoing technical issues.

A BA spokesperson said: “We’re investigating and working hard to resolve a technical issue and apologise for the inconvenience.

“We will provide further updates as quickly as possible.”

The airline issued the statement after a number of passengers from Heathrow expressed frustrations towards the company on social media.

It is the latest in a series of damaging IT problems for British Airways, the most recent of which saw the airline cancel several short-haul flights from Heathrow.

In January, the air service was among the airlines to cancel US flights due to 5G safety concerns.
