Leeds Bradford Airport warns passengers not to arrive too early as it gives updated delay figures after 'chaos'

Leeds Bradford Airport has provided an updated statement as it continues to deal with complaints of "chaos" and huge queues at the airport.

Many passengers have complained about large queues greeting them when they arrive at the airport in the mornings, with some waiting hours to get through security checks. Others described "chaotic" scenes, with security and staff not being on hand to direct passengers and provide information.

The airport has now provided an updated statement, with the chief executive Vincent Hodder asking people to come to Leeds Bradford "no earlier than three hours" before their scheduled departure time. Mr Hodder has said that people arriving early for their flights is leading to a "blow-out of queues".
