According to flight tracking website FlightRadar24, at the time of the airport&#8217;s closure, &quot;120 aircraft were in the air that will be diverting to alternate airports or returning to their origins.&quot; A Qantas flight arriving from Perth, Australia, was diverted to Paris&#8217; Charles de Gaulle while a United Airlines flight from New York was due to land in Ireland&#8217;s Shannon instead, news agencies reported. Some flights from the US were turning around mid-air and returning to their point of departure, according to the Reuters news agency. Other flights from as far afield as Lagos, Johannesburg and Singapore were being diverted to nearby Gatwick Airport. Heathrow, Europe&#8217;s busiest airport, handles more than than 80 million passengers a year.<\/p>\n<p>For more news go to: http:\/\/www.dw.com\/en\/<\/p>\n<p>Follow DW on social media:<br \/>\n\u25baInstagram: https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/dwnews<br \/>\n\u25baTikTok: https:\/\/www.tiktok.com\/@dwnews<br \/>\n\u25baFacebook: https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/deutschewellenews\/<br \/>\n\u25baTwitter: https:\/\/twitter.com\/dwnews<\/p>\n<p>F\u00fcr Videos in deutscher Sprache besuchen Sie: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/dwdeutsch<\/p>\n<p>Subscribe: https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/deutschewelleenglish?sub_confirmation=1<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Britain&#8217;s Heathrow Airport has completely shutdown and will be closed all day on Friday following a large fire at a nearby electrical substation knocked out power to one of the world&#8217;s busiest airports.&quot;To maintain the safety of our passengers and colleagues, Heathrow will be closed until 23h59 on 21 March,&quot; Heathrow Airport said in a [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":228245,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[130889],"tags":[],"actors":[],"class_list":["post-228244","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-dw-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>London&#039;s Heathrow airport completely shuts down after fire causes major power outage | DW News | News ISC Videos<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Watch London&#039;s Heathrow airport completely shuts down after fire causes major power outage | DW News for free, here on News ISC.
