Travellers have been facing major disruption to their journeys this afternoon after a technical glitch caused EasyJet to cancel or delay flights. The airline has apologised to customers after issues with their IT systems caused the sudden disruption.
EasyJet, which operates flights from Leeds Bradford Airport, is reported to have now cancelled or delayed hundreds of flights, according to The Mirror. The airline announced that the IT issue would have an impact on passengers who were due to fly with them this afternoon and asked travellers to check the status of their flight before arriving at the airport.
A statement from EasyJet earlier today, read: "Unfortunately, we are currently experiencing IT systems issues which means that flights due to depart between 13:00 and 15:00 UK time today may be impacted. Our team of IT specialists is working to restore the systems as soon as possible.
