Heathrow Airport's CEO has slammed a new £10 transit charge as "unnecessary" and one that makes the UK "uncompetitive" to the rest of Europe. The government has forced people entering the UK without a visa, including airline transit passengers, to get a £10 electronic travel authorisation (ETA). Thomas Woldbye says he understands the government wants to control borders, but argues transit passengers "never touch our border". Report by Brooksl.

At Heathrow Airport, a V-irgin Atlantic Boeing 787-9 and a stationary British Airways aircraft collided on the runway while the former was being towed. Thankfully, no passengers were aboard the V-irgin Atlantic plane at the time of the incident. Both aircraft are now undergoing maintenance checks to evaluate the damage. Despite the collision, airport operations remain uninterrupted, and investigations are underway to ensure passenger and crew safety. Eyewitnesses and social media footage have underscored the prompt response of emergency services.
