London Heathrow Airport in the United Kingdom lifted the limit of 100,000 passengers per day on October 29. The airport experienced confusion in July due to the relaxation of the new coronavirus pneumonia (COVID-19) epidemic prevention measures and the significant increase in the number of people using the airport.


London Heathrow Airport in the United Kingdom lifted the limit of 100,000 passengers per day on October 29.

The airport saw chaos in July as measures against the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) were eased and people using the airport increased significantly.

The restrictions were due to end on September 11, but the airport said in August it would be extended through most of October.

The airport said fewer last-minute cancellations and fewer people waiting to collect their bags meant the restrictions could be lifted.

Virgin Atlantic said in an email that it welcomed the airport's decision ahead of the peak winter travel season.

Dutch packages have yet to catch up

There are still some airports in Europe that can keep up with the surge in passenger numbers, such as Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport in the Netherlands.

The airport said that the passenger limit will be implemented until early 2023.

Schiphol Airport said last week that the limit of 70,000 daily departures continued in October and would be considered until the end of 2022.

In a statement, Schiphol Airport said it was dealing with manpower shortages, including improving restroom facilities and salaries for security company staff.
