5 reasons why airports are crumbling this Easter when everyone knew it was a holiday
Daily Mirror says Brits heading on Easter holidays have been facing chaotic scenes at major airports including Manchester, Birmingham and Heathrow in recent weeks due to staff shortages hit by Covid.
Some passengers were subject to four-hour queues for airport security over the weekend, while over 1,143 flights were cancelled in the space of a week according to data from aviation analytics firm Cirium – a 480% increase based on same period pre-pandemic.
That included easyJet cancelling over 200 flights and British Airways also hit with a wave of cancellations. (If you’re due to fly, we’ve got guides on how to check if your flight is cancelled as well as your refund rights if you’re affected).
