The UK Government is putting steps in place to protect Britons ahead of Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral next week

London Heathrow will change 15 per cent of its schedule as the funeral for Queen Elizabeth II gets underway on Monday local time.

Authorities are seeking to minimise disruptions and noise as thousands are expected to pay their respects to the late monarch.

“Operations to and from the airport will be subject to appropriate changes in order to avoid noise disruption at certain locations at specific times on Monday,” a spokesperson for London Heathrow Airport said.

The airport has also confirmed there will be no aircraft flying for 30 minutes as a period of silence takes place during the procession.

Some flights will also be diverted during the family’s private service, which is scheduled for later in the day.

“As a mark of respect, operations to and from the airport will be subject to appropriate changes in order to avoid noise disruption at certain locations at specific times on Monday.”
