Which? responds to the latest air traffic control disruptions in Scotland

Rory Boland, Editor of Which? Travel said:

“Not even two weeks since the last air traffic control disruptions, travellers are once again facing the prospect of delays and cancellations.

“If you are due to travel today or tomorrow, check the advice from your airport, tour operator, airline apps, or airport social media feeds for the most up to date advice.

"If your flight is cancelled or delayed, you're unlikely to be owed compensation by the airline as the technical issue is considered an 'extraordinary circumstance'. However, your airline is still responsible for looking after you during a delay. This includes food and drink after two to four hours (depending on how far you are flying) and a hotel if you are stuck overnight. If you end up having to pay for these things yourself, be sure to keep the receipts as you will need to claim this back from the airline.”
