LONDON (Reuters) – Operations at Birmingham Airport in central England will return to normal after reports of a suspicious vehicle earlier on Wednesday led to canceled flights.
“Following a police investigation, some passengers were evacuated and we had to suspend departing flights for several hours. This investigation has now concluded and operations will slowly return to normal,” an airport spokesperson said in a statement.
“All passengers are advised to check their airline for the latest flight information.”
Birmingham Airport is the UK’s seventh busiest hub with 11.5 million passengers last year.
