Christmas travellers face a third day of misery as thick fog leads to more flight cancellations and delays at many UK airports, including Cardiff Airport. Up to seventy thousand passengers heading for a Christmas getaway have been stranded or delayed as fog plunged many airports into chaos. And weather experts predicted the fog will continue for another 48 hours at least.
A spokesman for airports operator BAA said that 'fairly significant problems' were expected today, with BA flights to Heathrow worst hit. The current (11:00) position at Cardiff airport is as follows:
Diversions to aircraft will still cause delays and cancellations to both incoming and outgoing flights. Passengers travelling are asked to contact their airline before arriving at the airport. For flight information contact your airline or see www.cwlfly.com.
