Passengers who left their cars at Terminal Car Park 2 say they have been 'left in limbo' since Tuesday night's blaze.
Luton Airport has admitted it does not know whose vehicles were damaged by a massive fire which ripped through one of its car parks three days ago. The airport apologised to customers in a statement on Friday. But it added that due to the fact the site still cannot be accessed safely, 'we are unable to confirm the condition of any individual vehicle'.
' Andrew Hopkinson, chief fire officer at Bedfordshire Fire and Rescue Service, said the car park had as many as 1,500 vehicles in it at the time - with up to 1,200 believed to be damaged. A temporary ramp was installed to enable undamaged vehicles to be removed. Katie Forbes, 42, who lives on the outskirts of Coventry, had travelled to Fuerteventura in the Canary Islands with her husband, daughter and her daughter's boyfriend, and is due to return on Friday.
