With the fiasco that was caused by the opening of terminal five, British Airways has decided to increase the time it will take before moving its operations to the new terminal.

With the problems at the new “state of the art” terminal, BA said that it is best to delay moving its long haul flights to the new terminal, until all the “bugs” are sorted out. BA has said that it will extend its moving date to Terminal Five for at least a month.

Spokesperson and CEO Willie Walsh was quick to soothe fears that the delay to move to terminal five was in the best interest of BA’s customers, and can help to increase the confidence passengers feel with the airline carriers.

Since March 27, British Airways has had to cancel at least a hundred flights when the baggage system failed to operate.
