Karachi; July 21, 2016 - Due to a major breakdown of baggage handling system at Terminal 3 of London Heathrow Airport, thousands of pieces of check-in baggage has been left behind, affecting all flights landing or taking off from there, including those of Emirates, Gulf Air, Cathay Pacific, Virgin Atlantic and dozens of other airlines.
