London Heathrow Scraps Almost 400 Flights as Snow Hits U.K.

London’s Heathrow airport, the busiest in Europe, canceled 395 flights or 30 percent of the total scheduled and said others would be delayed as heavy snowfalls swept across southern Britain.

Services are alternating between the hub’s two runways to allow for plowing, and people due to fly today should check with their airline before setting out, Heathrow Ltd. said. London City Airport closed briefly and Paris Charles de Gaulle will scrap a fifth of flights this evening as the snow spreads east.
