The airline
British Airways (BA), part of the
IAG
air group
, has reported that it has canceled until this noon all its short-haul flights departing from London's
Heathrow
airport due to continuing technical problems.
The company, which has apologized to passengers for this inconvenience, has pointed out that long-haul flights departing from
Gatwick and London City

"We are extremely sorry that due to the
continuing technical issues
we are facing, we have unfortunately had to cancel all short-haul flights from Heathrow until noon today," said a statement from BA.
It adds that passengers traveling later should check the status of their flights on BA's website before arriving at the airport, as service interruptions are expected.

Airport will operate as planned, but customers may experience some delays. Our ba.com website is up and running.
In this situation, BA will offer passengers whose flights have been canceled the

, without a surcharge.
Our teams have been working hard through the night and will continue to do so to resolve the issue as quickly as possible.
On Friday, many passengers were unable to book flights or check-in online.
