Ryanair has revealed more than 350 of its flights were cancelled on August 28 and 29 due to the air traffic control failure
In its August traffic update, the Irish carrier said more than 350 of its flights were cancelled on August 28 and 29 due to the air traffic control issue. The knock-on effect continued for two more days and is said to have wrecked the travel plans of around a quarter of a million people.Airlines have been infuriated by the incident, which came at one of the worst times of the year, with little spare capacity across the sector due to it being the end of the summer break for many schools.
The boss of rival easyJet, Johan Lundgren, last week demanded a “full independent review” is launched into the failure and said it “must not happen again”.Transport Secretary Mark Harper met Nats, the Civil Aviation Authority, Border Force, airlines, airports and trade groups on Friday last week to discuss the situation.
