London’s Heathrow airport is set to end its daily passenger limits on departures
Ending at the end of this month, The Wall Street Journal is reporting that airlines have already been told about the changes.
Of course, this follows a turbulent summer of travel in the northern hemisphere, where staff shortages have plagued the sector.
To deal with the staffing crisis, Heathrow capped the number of passenger departures at 100-thousand a day.
But the cap was extended from July into October in a desperate bid to limit queues and baggage delays.
The sector has been crippled by the pandemic and labor shortages, with many airports and airlines struggling to hire enough staff to deal with the increased demand.
