Fog disrupts flights for a third day
Fog will continue to affect flights today as the Met Office issued further weather warnings for England and Wales.
Both Heathrow and Gatwick airports warned passengers to expect some delays and suggested they contact their airlines for latest departure and arrival times. The fog is expected to have cleared by lunchtime.
London City said the weather had improved ‘significantly’ this morning, but warned there might still be some delays.
London City, Heathrow and Gatwick were worst affected yesterday..
London City was closed to all flights for several hours yesterday while hundreds of flights were cancelled and delayed across the UK.
Visibility dropped to just 100m at Leeds Bradford, Manchester and Luton airports yesterday morning, and 150m at Stansted, Heathrow, Gatwick and Doncaster Sheffield, according to the Met Office.
Flight disruption at UK airports was compounded by foggy conditions in Europe, with large hubs such as Amsterdam’s Schiphol being badly affected.
Brussels, Frankfurt, Hamburg and Paris Charles De Gaulle airports also faced adverse weather and service disruption.
With the fog expected to last until 12 midday today, passengers due to fly today are advised to check their flight status with the airline.
