Luton Airport, located about 56 kilometres north of central London, said that “all flights are currently suspended as emergency services respond to a car fire that has spread in Terminal Car Park 2”.
“Access to the airport is currently restricted and we ask that people do not travel to the airport at this time,” the airport said on X.
The airport said it had suspended all flights until 12pm local time on Wednesday, and Car Park 2 had partially collapsed.
No casualties were reported, but “one member of the public and six firefighters were affected by smoke inhalation,” the East England Ambulance Service said on X.
The fire involved numerous cars, the Bedfordshire fire department said.
“One half of the structure was fully involved in fire and the building suffered a significant structural collapse,” the department added, declaring it a major incident.
British airline easyJet, whose flights operate from Luton Airport, said “airlines are currently experiencing some disruption to their flying programs”.
