Holidaymakers have been assured their plans should not be thrown into chaos.
However, if there is a chance that airport queues may be longer than usual, it's advisable to arrive at the airport in plenty of time.
In other Heathrow Airport news, the London holiday hub shared a Frequently Asked Questions page to "help you prepare for your return and answer any questions you may have".
Britons going abroad via Heathrow Airport should consult this guidance.
In answer to the question, "What happens if my flight is delayed or cancelled?", the travel gurus at Heathrow Airport said: "In the event of severe delays or cancellations, you have certain passengers rights and you may be entitled to compensation or a refund.
"The Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) set out clear rules on the amounts due depending on the type and/or the length of the delay. The airlines should also provide you with documentation or links so that you can make your claim."
The airport also shared information on what happens if bags go missing, how flyers can change their car park booking, the charge for dropping passengers off, and support available for mobility needs.
Britons whose bags go missing were advised: "You may be entitled to compensation from the airline if your checked-in luggage is delayed, lost or damaged.
"You should report the problem to the airline and complete a missing bag report and a customs form if travelling internationally. Most airlines or their handling agent will have representatives in the baggage reclaim hall. Please provide them with as much detail as possible such as; size, shape, colour, brand, and details of any luggage tag.
