Over the past few days thousands of holidays have descended into chaos after passengers were forced to scramble to book themselves on another flight.
Two of the UK's largest airlines - easyJet and BA - have been at the centre of the problem with the airline operators cancelling hundreds of flights just days - and in some cases hours - before planes were due to take off.
The news comes at a busy time of the year as families prepare to fly out with their kids as the Eater holidays get underway with reports of two Edinburgh routes being cancelled just today.
