wedding and we have to travel for at least 20 hours to get there.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;As Heathrow shut down sparking worldwide travel carnage: &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Counter terrorism police probing Heathrow fire amid claims of Russian sabotage;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Experts say blaze exposes huge &#039;vulnerability&#039;

end to their travels.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Speaking at the airport, Christine Eckles, 50, said: &#039;It was a delay at first, a three-hour delay, and then we found out our flight to Chicago was cancelled.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&#039;We&#039;re having to work on how to get a new flight out with British Airways.&#039;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Ms Eckles, who is accompanying students from Iowa, added: &#039;It&#039;s been stressful.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&#039;We&#039;re at the end of our trip and we have had a wonderful time in London and Paris, and everybody&#039;s ready to go home and back to their spring break.&#039;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;However, another American tourist praised his airline&#039;s and Heathrow&#039;s &#039;fantastic&#039; response to a fire that closed the transport hub on Friday.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Nearly 300,000 passengers were affected after the fire, which led to the cancellation or delay of more than 1,350 flights. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Your browser does not support iframes.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Tens of thousands of travellers are still stranded across the globe today, while others fear missing funerals, hen-parties and holidays of a lifetime as a result of the chaos&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Read More&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;BREAKING NEWS&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Ed Miliband orders urgent probe Heathrow fire as boss claims he is &#039;proud&#039; of how airport coped&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Speaking at Heathrow, Tim Kolb, who travelled to the UK on holiday from Dallas, Texas, said: &#039;I was just getting ready to board the plane on Thursday night, and the news actually started coming across on our phones quicker than on the (airport) desk.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&#039;But American Airlines did a fabulous job - we didn&#039;t have to wait in the line or anything. They got us our accommodation reservation.&#039;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Mr Kolb, 55, added: &#039;I thought I was going to be there (Dallas) delayed two days, but I went over yesterday.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&#039;It was organised well. In fact, they had several planes leaving within an hour of each other to Heathrow.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&#039;The way everybody responded and fell into action, it was fantastic.&#039;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Queues at Heathrow on Saturday were not noticeably longer than usual, with additional staff on duty to guide passengers through the airport.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;A passenger at Heathrow said purchasing their flights in one booking had helped them avoid the worst of the disruption when a nearby fire closed the airport on Friday.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Rob Walford, 74, said: &#039;We were in Nice with friends and we were due to fly into Heathrow yesterday.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&#039;We were going to stay the night and then catch our flight to San Diego, so obviously, we didn&#039;t do that.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&#039;The wisest thing we did, though, while in Nice was take the tram to the airport and then rebook us first thing this morning. &lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&#039;If we hadn&#039;t done that, we wouldn&#039;t be here.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;&#039;The British Airways desk sorted it out: we&#039;ve got a flight this morning that wasn&#039;t going to be cancelled, so now we&#039;re good.&#039;&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;</div>
