Fog causes flight delays at Gatwick Airport for a third day

Fog is continuing to disrupt flights at Gatwick Airport with restrictions imposed to maintain safety.

On what is expected to be the airport’s busiest day of the Christmas period, it said some flights “may be delayed throughout the day” due to “poor visibility” and apologised to customers.

While the weather is improving, the UK’s main air traffic control (ATC) provider Nats said temporary air restrictions were in place for the rest of the day at affected London airports.

Flights are still being delayed across some of the UK’s other major airports on Sunday after cancellations and disruption since Friday. Passengers are still advised to check their flight before travelling.
