Airlines and airports have been significantly impacted, with Ryanair urging passengers to check their app for updates on flights. The airline assured passengers they would be notified of any changes, but acknowledged that weather conditions were beyond their control.
Air Traffic Restrictions
Several airports, including Gatwick and Manchester, have imposed temporary air traffic restrictions to maintain safety. A spokesperson for Nats, the UK’s air traffic control provider, explained:
“Due to widespread fog, temporary restrictions are in place at several airports across the UK today. These measures are necessary to ensure safety. We continue to monitor the situation closely and are working with airlines and airports to minimize disruption.”
