Luggage problems hit Terminal 5
Passengers at Heathrow Terminal 5 are facing disruption following problems with the baggage system.
Airport operator BAA suspended check-in because of a mechanical failure, but it was later reopened after the problem was identified and resolved.
British Airways warned there would be delays but said it was doing everything it could to minimise disruption.
One baggage handler said there were more than 1,000 pieces of luggage piled up and the number was rising.

Too bad that FR doesn’t fly to T5. MoL has found a solution to the problem already : no luggage at all. :dev2:. Isn’t it a great idea? 😀
He may add a potential earner, buy budget clothing while on the flight at RyanAir prices, collect on disembarking from the RyanAir clothing stall after customs/immigration clearance.
In addition see my tongue in cheek comments in previous posts –
As I said in the post about seats in place of toilets, watch the cash flow of the organisation – it maybe be already in the ‘toilet’/down the pan.

It may even be that he starts using re-furbished ‘crap’ from post demolition scrap.

He is going to need a whole bunch of clover leaves to get himself out the mess.
