Ryanair Warms Passengers: Expect Delays at Gatwick Due to Fog
Ryanair has warned travellers of potential chaos at UK airports today, with Gatwick singled out for fog-related delays.
Fog Grounds Flights at Gatwick
The budget airline highlighted London Gatwick as a hotspot for disruption on May 17. Passengers should brace for delays as thick fog hampers flight schedules. Ryanair apologised but stressed these hold-ups are beyond their control, affecting all airlines at the busy airport.
What Ryanair Says About Compensation
If your flight is delayed or cancelled, you could be in line for compensation. Ryanair offers help for delays over two hours on short-haul flights and three hours on longer EU routes. Perks include meal vouchers, hotel stays, and transport between airport and accommodation.
Passengers can also request rerouting, change flights, or claim refunds, depending on the situation. However, Ryanair warns refunds might not be guaranteed if the delays are caused by factors out of their hands.
Stay Alert and Check the App
Ryanair urges travellers to monitor their flights via the Ryanair app to get the latest updates. The airline promises to do its best to keep disruptions to a minimum but advises contacting them directly for assistance.
