Holidaymakers travelling from Heathrow Airport have been left without their luggage after a technical fault with the conveyor belts at Terminal 5.

It could now take several days for thousands of passengers to be reunited with their baggage after a computer error forced baggage handlers to load cases manually. On Monday, Heathrow told the BBC that the backlog of bags at T5 were at "several thousand".

A spokeswoman added: "We are very sorry for the disruption passengers have experienced and we are working round the clock with airlines to reunite passengers with their bags as quickly as possible."
