Flights Between UK and SA Continuing Uninterrupted

Flights leaving South African airports for the UK are departing on time, despite the heightened security at Heathrow Airport, because of yesterday’s terror alert. SA Logue contacted SAA, BA, Virgin, KLM, Air France and Lufthansa, and didn’t hear of any problems outside of normal airport glitches. So if you’ve a flight bound for Britain, go ahead and board it!

Travelling out of the UK, meanwhile, is a bit more complicated, because of the backlog that needs to be cleared after yesterday’s flight cancellations. Expect significant delays if you’re intending to leave for South Africa anytime today or this weekend.
