Air Traffic Control

British Airwaves fucking shit up!

I should be on a plane to Hong Kong right now, instead I’ll be flying out to Frankfurt tomorrow morning. There was some huge fuck up with air traffic control at Heathrow airport and our connecting flight got cancelled. Today has been so stressful, I’m ready to just put it all behind me now. Hopefully we’ll get some sick compensation payout on our insurance for the cancelled flight.

Fell at the fist hurdle, this is not a good thing.

This affected us....

Flights to and from some UK airports have been cancelled or delayed because of a computer problem at the main air traffic control centre at Swanwick.
Airports across the UK have been affected by delays of flights using airspace in the south-east of England.
The problem has now been fixed and although services are said to be returning to normal, some delays are still occurring.
