MAS flights to London disrupted

Hi folks!
 
Christmas is approaching and many people are heading back to their hometown to celebrate Christmas with their family and friends...
 
Today I read about the news that two flights to London's Heathrow airport.are cancelled and passengers are requested to re-book their tickets on other MH flights. They are MH2 from Kuala Lumpur to London scheduled to depart at 11.55pm yesterday and flight MH3 from London to Kuala Lumpur scheduled to depart at 10.50am today.
 
One of my UK friend (Charlotte) is heading back last Saturday to visit her family and friends. I hope she managed to catch the flight and arrive safely.
 
 
For more information about the flight disruption, passengers taking MAS airline are advised to check their flight status at www.malaysiaairlines.com or call MAS Call Centre at 1-300-88-3000 within Malaysia or +603-78433000 outside Malaysia, before proceeding to the airport.
 
However, AirAsia X Chief Executive Officer Azran Osman Rani said all AirAsia X flights would be operating normally.

He said the Air Asia X D72009 had to land at Birmingham Airport on Saturday as Stansted Airport was congested when planes which were supposed to land at Heathrow were diverted to Stansted, resulting in passengers being delayed for 20 hours.

A statement issued by Stansted airport's website, http://www.stanstedairport.com, said the airport is open and does not have any periods of snowfall forecast for today.

Hope the heavy snowfall will back to normal soon.
 
Merry Christmas to everyone and have a safe and bless homecoming!
 
Cheers!
