Gatwick Airport Departures: Disruption continues into fourth day
When the fog dissipates, many planes and pilots may be out of place due to the previous delays and cancellations, which is likely to bring further disruption to air travel.
A spokesperson for the air traffic control provider Nats said in a statement: “The weather conditions that caused disruption to UK airports over the weekend have significantly improved.
“Only a few air traffic regulations remain, and these are within normal operating limits.”
There has been disruption at the UK’s busiest airport since Friday, and it lasted over the weekend, when the airport expected its busiest day over the festive period.
At Gatwick on Sunday, around 30 departures and 28 arrivals were cancelled throughout the day.
Other airports around the UK, including Manchester, Glasgow and Cardiff, were among the airports where flights were also disrupted on Friday and Saturday.
