If you want to hear a report from the ground, read this guy's blog entry about being stuck at Heathrow.
Highlights include:
*10 hours of security lines
*Large trash bags full of expensive items like cameras, phones and iPods that people had to ditch at the last minute
*Pictures of stranded travelers sleeping on the ground wrapped in foil emergency blankets
*People weeping on the ground in frustration
*Sitting on a half-full plane being served food before being made to get off, and then learning later that the plane flew to his destination empty.
This poor guy. I can't wait to hear my parent's experience when they get home. They're supposed to fly back through Heathrow. Let's hope they rebook their return trip.
