A sunny bank holiday at last! But beware air, road and rail hitches
Evening Standard
|May 26, 2023
LONDONERS were today finally looking forward to a sunny bank holiday weekend - but the half-term holiday plans for thousands of families have already been thrown into disarray
-
British Airways cancelled at least 42 more flights today due to the impact of an IT failure. Most of the affected flights were on short-haul routes to and from Heathrow on what was expected to be the busiest day for UK air travel since before the coronavirus pandemic.
Today's chaos was caused by planes and crew being out of position after an IT problem caused around 80 flights to be grounded yesterday. About 16,000 passengers have been affected by the cancellations. There were also wide-spread delays to other flights, with some passengers unable to check in online.
