Queen opens Heathrow’s new terminal
None other than Queen Elizabeth II came calling on Heathrow Airport’s gleaming new Terminal 5 last Friday — a first step toward reviving the dingy, overcrowded facilities at the world’s busiest international airport. According to the Associated Press, the queen and her husband, Prince Philip, toured the light-filled structure, which will begin operating on March 27 with the arrival of a British Airways flight from Hong Kong. “Looking around this bright and airy space with its clean, efficient layout, I am sure that many millions of travelers will have reason to be appreciative of the thought and care that has gone into the design, construction and ongoing maintenance of this significant new terminal,†the queen said.
