As usual CHECK BEFORE YOU FLY.
The latest advice issued by the CAA said airports in north-west England could safely stay open on Wednesday, with the South-East England was unlikely to be affected.
The CAA said:
“The situation remains changeable, so passengers expecting to travel from airports in Scotland, Northern Ireland, the North of England and north Wales should contact their airlines to check whether their flight is operating.”
The current cloud is due to be pushed out to the Atlantic over the next few days, which may spell more distribution for Ireland. However, it’s a fluid situation.
Good luck if you need to travel!
