London City closed 12FEB18
Just heard on the local radio that LCY is currently closed. Apparently unexploaded WWII ordinance has been found during construction.

Check with your airline is the advice.

Edited to add: (From the BBC)
Docklands Light Railway services between the airport and Woolwich Arsenal have also been suspended
All LX flights today from Geneva are cancelled.
