Their flights were canceled or delayed at Heathrow Airport to accommodate him, according to British Airways. BAA, the airport owner, confirmed Tuesday that 32 arrivals and 36 departures, mostly British Airways flights, were canceled June 15, when Bush arrived, and the following day, when he left. BAA had no figures on delays related to the president's visit. The company said Heathrow typically handles 1,300 arrivals and departures per day.
