Heathrow fire cost us tens of millions, says chief executive

Giving the first public estimate on the bill from the fire, Thomas Woldbye said Heathrow had yet to decide whether to pursue National Grid for damages, as it awaited the findings of an investigation by the energy regulator, Ofgem.

Heathrow was criticised for its lack of resilience after more than 270,000 passenger journeys were disrupted when an overnight fire and power outage stopped flights landing or taking off on 21 March.
