There has been more travel misery for those brave enough to head off to foreign climes this half-term, with more flights cancelled at Gatwick on Saturday, triggering yet more disruption.
Nearly 50 flights – 25 departures and 22 arrivals – were scrubbed from the schedule at the London airport. Almost 7,000 disgruntled passengers affected.
“Poor weather across Europe does mean air traffic control restrictions have been placed on airspace across the continent,” said a spokesperson for Gatwick. "This is causing delays and is the reason for some of the cancellations, and many UK airports will be impacted by this.”
