Leeds Bradford Airport: Full list of cancellations and delays as National Air Traffic control issue continues
Travel disruption could last for days after flights were cancelled leaving thousands of passengers stranded during a technical fault in the UK’s air traffic control (ATC) system.
Transport Secretary Mark Harper said it was the worst incident of its kind in “nearly a decade” and announced an “independent review” will be carried out.
The issue started on Monday after a technical glitch meant flight plans had to be input manually by controllers, causing more than a quarter of departures and arrivals to be axed.
The disruption has continued today (Tuesday) with flights cancelled and delayed as many aircraft and crews are out of position.
Below is the cancellations and delays faced by flights scheduled to depart and arrive at Leeds Bradford Airport today:
