Actually there is no great concern about Heathrow to London services
other than on the last day of the Olympics when there is a mass
departure. Arrivals are staggered over a much longer period and won't
overload the services. This is based on informed discussions I had
several months ago with a range of people who know what is planned.
Furthermore, it's not like the airlines are putting on extra flights to handle
extra passengers, even if slots were available - and there aren't. Given that
the flights are mostly full already and there aren't larger planes sitting
around waiting to be substituted in, I doubt it's even going to be noticable.
