British Airways experienced some issues with their check-in system this morning and apologised for any inconvenience it has caused. Passengers at Heathrow, Gatwick and London City had to be checked in manually, facing long queues and delays. Only last May British Airways’ IT system was down because an IT contractor accidentally switched of the power supply of the data center.

The fault resolved at about 09:00 BST and its check-in system was operating normally.

This issue is now resolved and our staff are working flat out to help customers get away on their holidays.

Working for 25 years in the aviation industry, I changed my career and became a firefighter/EMT in 2021. I like to spend my free time with my two sons, girlfriend, family and friends. I love to travel, wine and dine and support my favourite football squad KV Mechelen. Once an Ironman 70.3 finisher and dreaming of completing a full distance.
