Title: Many flights delayed at UK airports
Post by: mhm on December 07, 2013, 11:57:23 AM
Flights are being delayed across the UK and in the Irish Republic because of an air traffic control centre fault.

Affected airports include Heathrow, Stansted, Cardiff, Dublin, and Glasgow.

The National Air Traffic Control Service (Nats) said its Swanwick centre, in Hampshire, was having "difficulty switching from night time to daytime operation".

Operations director Juliet Kennedy said: "We don't at the moment know how long it is going to take to resolve."
