Travel chaos ‘could get worse’ this summer, union warns
The Independent says the travel chaos at UK airports this half term “could get worse” over the summer, unions have warned.
Holidaymakers have had to contend with waves of flight cancellations and long queues at airports such as Bristol, Gatwick, Heathrow and Manchester due to staff shortages at a time of increased passenger demand.
Britain’s largest holiday company TUI announced on Tuesday that it had cancelled almost 200 flights between now and the end of next month. Meanwhile, at least 31 easyJet flights were scrapped at Gatwick on Tuesday.
In total, some 291 departures from major UK airports have been cancelled in the last seven days, according to the aviation data firm Cirium.
