El-AL are operating a very ad-hoc service primarily freight however there is some traffic (Israelis ) back to Tel- Aviv - subject to very strict 14 day self isolation on entry

THY- Turkish are ALL freight on passenger aircraft

And lets just get real an airport the size and importance of Heathrow to the national economy 15,000 is an exceptionally small amount - To use metaphor it equates to somewhere like Liverpools typical traffic levels.

BA operated at least 5 US flights with passengers on today and have been doing daily. LAX BOS IAD ORD and JFK all the other US flights are freighters. NBO SIN PVG PEK TLV one of the HKGs all freighters. EZE ATQ and LOS positioned as repatriation flights.
