Further disruption at Luton airport over the coming days is “inevitable” following the huge fire that engulfed one of the terminal car parks earlier this week, authorities have said.

The airport on Wednesday evening (11 October) urged passengers to continue following its advice as operations resumed, hailing the "tireless" work of airport staff and emergency services.

“We are committed to providing as much support as we can to affected customers,” Luton airport said.

There were limited minor delays to departures and arrivals on Thursday morning (12 October) after dozens of cancellations on Wednesday.
