Another problem for Heathrow
Heathrow disruption after glitch
Passengers at Heathrow
BAA has apologised for any inconvenience caused
A computer glitch has caused major disruption at Heathrow Airport's Terminal 3.
Thousands of passengers were prevented from entering the building after computer screens in the terminal were reported to go blank.
A spokesman for BAA said the problem had led to delays, but no cancellations.
The airport was branded a "national humiliation" when the launch of Terminal 5 in March caused chaos.
Passengers were given water and seating outside Terminal 3 which serves mainly long haul flights.
The spokesman said: "Passengers are once again checking in at Terminal 3 following an earlier temporary suspension due to an IT network issue.
"We apologise for any inconvenience and are working hard to check in passengers as quickly as possible.
"At the present time there are no cancellations, however some flights departing from Terminal 3 may be delayed."
