Fog is causing major disruptions for travelers at some of the nation’s busiest airports, such as Manchester and Gatwick.
According to Nats, the primary air traffic control agency in the UK, the flight flow is being lowered for safety.
“Due to widespread fog, temporary air traffic restrictions are in place at several airports across the UK today,” Nats stated.
A spokesperson for the airport, who was contacted by the BBC, did not specify whether the disruption was caused by the weather, but dozens of flights from Heathrow were either delayed or cancelled.
