Brits leaving early for the Easter break have endured "shambolic" delays at airports, the Eurostar and on the UK's motorways.
The RAC predicted Good Friday to be the busiest on the roads in eight years, but holiday-makers trying to get a head start by leaving on Thursday instead are unlikely to be able to escape the travel chaos entirely.
Drivers were advised to make journeys on Thursday (April 14) or early Saturday (April 16) in the morning to have the best chance of avoiding huge queues.
