On August 28, of last year, an air traffic control (ATC) system failure resulted in hundreds of flights being canceled and thousands of people being left stranded overseas.
One of the busiest days of the year for air travel was Monday, Bank Holiday.
Following a technical issue that occurred during the processing of a flight plan, air traffic control provider National Air Traffic Services (Nats) lost around £100 million in refunds, rebookings, hotel rooms, and refreshments.
According to the report, over 300,000 individuals experienced cancellations, 95,000 experienced delays over three hours, and at least an additional 300,000 were affected by delays.
