British Airways will scrap 100 flights from its London Heathrow base on Monday (local time) and re-time others as the airport, airlines and air traffic controllers work to minimise noise during Queen Elizabeth II's state funeral. About 15% of Heathrow's schedule will be altered, according to the hub, with flights halted for various durations through the day. There will be no aircraft movements for 30 minutes from 11.40am and 12.10pm to avoid disrupting a two-minute silence at the end of the funeral, and no arrivals for 35 minutes starting at 1.45pm during the procession of the Queen's hearse. Departures will be barred for 1 hour 40 minutes from 3.05pm as the cortège approaches Windsor Castle for the former monarch's interment, and limited until 9pm while the service concludes. Customers booked on affected British Airways flights can choose alternative services or opt for a refund, an airline spokesman said, adding that no long-haul operations are among those cancelled.<br/>
