During a busy travel period for Christmas holidays, flights at Belfast City Airport have returned to normal after delays and cancellations caused by an emergency landing on the runway.
Cancellations Persist at Heathrow
Adverse weather conditions in the UK have significantly disrupted air traffic, particularly at Heathrow Airport. Over 100 flights were canceled yesterday, with an additional 80 flights delayed or canceled today.
Chaos on Roads and Railways
Roads and rail networks across the UK have faced severe disruptions due to the “perfect storm” caused by the adverse weather:
- M5 Motorway: Traffic came to a standstill following a truck accident.
- M1 Motorway: Transport was halted due to a van catching fire.
- Southeastern Rail Lines: Services between London Charing Cross and Dover Priory were disrupted by signaling failures caused by a fire near the tracks at Folkestone Central, leading to cancellations and revisions.
Weather Warnings Lifted, Caution Advised
The Met Office announced the lifting of yellow weather warnings as of 9:00 PM on Sunday. However, travelers are advised to remain cautious. Forecasts predict grey skies for the Christmas holidays, with sunny intervals in some regions and unseasonably mild temperatures.
