"Since yesterday morning,staff in the UK and overseas have been working round the clock to ensure that our customers are inconvenienced as little as possible.

"In the UK we despatched special assistance teams to the airports to ensure our customers
were kept up to date with the latest information.

"Our overseas teams have also been working hard to look after those customers who were due to return home.”
