Extra flights for passengers stranded in ash cloud disruption

Ryanair has put on extra flights from Faro and Malaga to help passengers stranded by the ash cloud disruption.

It has laid on extra Birmingham, Bristol, Dublin, Glasgow Prestwick and London Stansted flights today.

The airline said a limited number of seats will also be available to passengers who opted for a refund from Ryanair, but still find themselves disrupted.

Yesterday, airports on the Canary Islands, in south-west Spain and some in Morocco were closed.

All Spanish airports are now open, except for Valencia which will open later today.

Flights to Madeira, Portugal and parts of France were also impacted.
