Gatwick Airport's water supply is being restored after a power outage at a treatment facility caused significant disruption on Sunday. Travellers faced extensive queues for lavatories, and both terminals had restaurants and bars shut. EasyJet cautioned travelers against early arrival, as bag drop counters would open two hours prior to departure, rather than the previous three.
