First plane arrives at Heathrow after ash ban lifted

All UK airports have been given the go-ahead to reopen, the Transport Secretary has said.

Lord Adonis made the announcement earlier, after a reassessment of the risk to aircraft from volcanic ash.

The decision means that long-haul BA flights currently in the air will be able to land at London Heathrow.

The first of these, arriving from Vancouver, landed at Heathrow shortly before 2200 BST.

The BBC's Joanna Gosling spoke to some of the passengers from it.
