  • Systems Integration at London Heathrow Terminal 5
    CMR 420, 02/01/09 Winter 2009 | Vol.51, No.2 | REPRINT SERIES CaliforniaReview Management Innovation in Megaprojects: Systems Integration at London Heathrow Terminal 5 Andrew Davies David Gann Tony Douglas © 2009 by The Regents of the University of California Innovation in Megaprojects: SYSTEMS INTEGRATION AT LONDON HEATHROW TERMINAL 5 Andrew Davies David Gann Tony Douglas growing number of infrastructure projects are being proposed and built throughout the world. A megaproject is an investment of $1B or more to build the physical infrastructures that enable people, resources, and information to move within buildings and betweenA locations throughout the world. Organizations responsible for produc- ing megaprojects face a “performance paradox.” Despite the growth in number and opportunities to benefit from learning, megaprojects continue to have poor performance records.1 Most are unsuccessful measured against their original time, cost, quality, and safety objectives, as well as their expected revenue predictions. The construction of airport infrastructure provides examples of how megaprojects can go wrong. When Denver’s $5B international airport opened in 1995, it was almost 200 per cent over the original budget, 16 months late, and passenger traffic achieved only half the predicted revenues. The opening of the airport was plagued by problems with the baggage handling system, which was eventually abandoned in August 2005. Although Hong Kong’s $20B Chek Lap Kok airport opened on time in July 1998, severe disruptions were experienced for six months after opening due to computer problems with the baggage han- dling system. The authors thank Jennifer Whyte, Catelijne Coopmans, and Tim Brady, who worked on a larger study of the T5 project with us, and four anonymous referees who helped to develop our conceptual approach.

  • British Airways Response
    From: British Airways Customer Relations <[email protected]> Date: 17 April 2015 at 10:49 Subject: Your Response from BA Customer Relations To: [email protected] **Please DO NOT reply directly to this email by using the ‘reply’ function on your personal email settings, as it WILL NOT be received. If you wish to send us a reply please use the link at the bottom of the email** Dear Mr Dial Thank you for your letter dated 26 March addressed to Silla Maizey and the Executive Chairman, Keith Williams about been downgraded on flight BA0191 on 13 March. Keith has asked me to reply to you on his behalf and so this is not a standard email. I apologise on behalf of British Airways for not contacting you proactively about this matter and for the delay in my personal response. I see from your booking that you purchased the ticket to Austin on 04 November 2014 through you travel agent Opodo. I completely understand your frustration at booking this ticket so far in advance and arriving at the airport to find you've been downgraded from the Club World cabin. I hope our staff explained that there are occasions where our customers make a booking and then don’t turn up for their flight. We, along with other airlines, have an overbooking policy, which helps us avoid flying with empty seats and means we can keep the cost of our fares down. Ultimately this means we can fly a lot more passengers to their destinations. We collect data about how many people don’t turn up for each flight and we use this information to tell us if we should book more passengers than there are seats.

  • HEATHROW TERMINAL 5 OPENS on Friday 14 March, Her Majesty the Queen Officially Opened the New Terminal 5 Building at Heathrow Airport
    HEATHROW TERMINAL 5 OPENS On Friday 14 March, Her Majesty The Queen officially opened the new Terminal 5 building at Heathrow Airport. Despite new sections of Underground being previously completed (the Piccadilly Line from Heathrow T1,2,3 to Terminal 5 and Heathrow Express from Heathrow Central T1,2,3 to Terminal 5), there was no Royal opening for these. The Piccadilly Line extension to Heathrow Central (as it was then) on 16 December 1977 was a Royal occasion, as was the Terminal 4 opening on 1 April 1986 (the station opened on 12 April), the latter being in the hands of the Prince and Princess of Wales. The opening for passengers came on Thursday 27 March 2008, for both the Piccadilly Line and Heathrow Express. Both lines and platforms lay side by side each other. A short section of blue-tinted glass „wall‟ separates the two railways, so it possible to see one from the other. The Heathrow Express platforms are numbered 3 and 4, while the Piccadilly Line platforms are numbered 5 (arrival) and 6 (departure). Platforms 1 and 2 are reserved for any future main line rail expansion. Notices suggest that passengers might find it quicker to use the lifts, instead of two (or more) escalators from platform level into the terminal building. Here on the first day, your reporter was greeted with the announcement of delays in the air terminal to passengers‟ baggage. This turned into a rather big problem, which resulted in a number of flights being cancelled from the all-BA terminal, not only on opening day but for many days after, and certainly as these notes were being finalised on 6 April.
