Europe’s busiest airport Heathrow, which operates at about 98 percent capacity, has advised passengers to check the status of their flights before travelling.

We're working with British Airways following an issue with their IT system this morning that has caused some delays for passengers. 

Reports of passengers affected by the outage have so far been confirmed in Rome, Prague, Stockholm, Malaga and Lisbon. Many passengers have criticized the airline for a lack of food and drink provided as a basic means of compensation. 

Some passengers on social media vented their frustration at the issue, which has left many stranded, with some stuck on planes on the runway.
