Heathrow Chaos Continues: Air Traffic Glitch Grounds More Flights

 

London’s Heathrow Airport faced another wave of flight cancellations on Thursday, following a major air traffic control failure that disrupted operations across the UK. At least 16 flights, including routes to Brussels and Toronto and arrivals from New York and Berlin, were cancelled.

The disruption stemmed from a technical malfunction at National Air Traffic Services (NATS), which oversees UK airspace. Although NATS reported its systems were back online and operating normally after switching to a backup system, the fallout continued into the next day.

This marks the second major outage in two years for NATS, which also impacted Gatwick, Edinburgh, and other airports, resulting in 122 cancellations on Wednesday alone. Ryanair’s Chief Operating Officer, Neal McMahon, has called for the resignation of NATS CEO Martin Rolfe, criticizing the agency for failing to learn from previous incidents.

Transport Minister Heidi Alexander announced plans to meet with Rolfe to investigate the failure and prevent future disruptions. Heathrow, already reeling from a March power substation fire that stranded thousands of passengers, has yet to issue a formal response.

With the summer travel season in full swing, passengers are advised to check with airlines and airports for updates as the system stabilizes.
