Due to snow in Heathrow my last flight back home to Hamburg was canceled. As this was not the only flight canceled it was mayhem in T5 with queues going through the entire terminal.
My friend and I queued in the 1st wing to get rebooked which was finally done at around 11 pm.
They also offered hotel vouchers but the line for the busses and taxis outside stretched also down the entire terminal.
Since we were on the first flight out in the morning it would meant we would have had only 4 hours of sleep in the hotel or so.
We eventually just stayed in the terminal with some drinks (although all shops almost sold out completely).
