The UK is suffering a major disruption to air travel due to unspecific “technical issues” affecting flight control computer systems.
Britain’s National Air Traffic Services (NATS) says it has “applied traffic flow restrictions to maintain safety,” with several airlines reporting disruptions felt at airports across the world.
NATS provided no indication for when the issue might be resolved.
Several airlines are reporting issues as a result of the system failure.
According to Sky News, British Airways said it was “working closely with NATS to understand the impact of a technical issue that is affecting UK airspace, and will keep our customers up to date with the latest information.”
Scottish airline Loganair issued a statement to customers, calling it a “network-wide failure of UK air traffic control computer systems.”
