Flight Delays Continue in UK despite Technical Issue Fixed
A technical fault in National Air Traffic Services' (Nats) air traffic control systems on Monday forced limits on incoming flights, causing widespread delays and cancellations across UK airports including Heathrow, Gatwick and London Luton. Nats said the issue was fixed within a few hours but warned delays would continue, while aviation data firm Cirium recorded that about 8% of departures and 9% of arrivals had been cancelled by 14:30 BST.
