Bristol Airport: GMB's Simon Calder says Jubilee weekend at airports will 'not be much better' than current chaos

Travel expert Simon Calder has predicted that those travelling over the Platinum Jubilee bank holiday weekend will face similar problems to those experienced at struggling airports last weekend. Bristol Airport is one of several airports across the country facing unrelenting queues, flight cancellations and delays, causing stress amongst passengers and staff.

Simon Calder, Good Morning Britain's in-house travel expert, has provided his thoughts on the chaos erupting at airports across the country. This weekend appeared to be a particularly bad one for those flying from Bristol Airport, with lots of families having their half-term breaks cancelled.

With travellers attempting to make the most of the four-day weekend by heading out on breaks this coming weekend, further issues are anticipated. Simon expects that things will calm down a bit at the nation's airports after half term, but will then pick up again in late June and July as Britons head out on their summer holidays.
