Due to a fire at Heathrow Airport in the United Kingdom, Thai Airways International ( THAI ) decided to reroute a flight from London to Brussels on Friday.

According to flight tracking websites Flightradar24 and Flight Aware, Flight TG910 left Suvarnabhumi Airport at 12:44 am and arrived at Brussels Airport in Belgium at 6:57 am local time ( 12.57 pm Thai time ).

The THAI journey was actually scheduled to get at Heathrow at 6 40 am.

On its social media platforms, the national ship did not disclose any details about the airfare change.

The escape occurred on Friday as Europe’s second-busiest aircraft was shut down because a fire at a local electronic substation caused a power outage.

” Turners are advised to avoid going to the airport and to get in touch with their airline for more information. We regret the inconvenience, Heathrow said in an X information.

According to the South China Morning Post on its X bill, Cathay Pacific may have to cancel flights from Hong Kong to Heathrow as a result of the shutdown.
