US nationwide ground stop: Flightradar24 shows scope of flight disruptions

Let's take a look at this map here from Flightradar24. On the left of your screen, you can see what the US airspace looked like 24 hours ago. And then on the right, that is the situation during the nationwide ground stop. As you can see, more than 10,000 flights were disrupted. And this has also spread to delayed international flights in and out of the U.S. We've got Camille Nedelec standing by for us at London's Heathrow Airport. Camille, what kind of disruptions or delays have people there at Heathrow also been facing? London Heathrow Airport is a major transport hub, but we are still seeing a lot of activity behind me with the airport just here. But throughout the morning, there have been a flurry of U.S. flights that have either been delayed or cancelled outright. And that's despite British Airways saying, well, things are getting back to normal. But one user on Twitter posted saying that, well, I've been on the tarmac for two hours now. British Airways Airways did point out it is going to take some time to get back to normal, but passengers are advised to travel to Heathrow as per their usual time and get ready to travel as scheduled. So to assume that there aren't any delays until told otherwise. And that's the UK Civil Aviation Authority was also warning in a statement earlier on Saturday of potential disruption, saying there may be some follow on disruption as airlines Lines work to rebook affected passengers. and get all services back to normal. And there are signs that that is happening. The level of disruption isn't spread out equally across UK airports. Manchester Airport, for example, a much smaller airport, was able to have all three of its morning US flights take off with minimal delays. That's Newsys' Camille Nedelec reporting live from London's Heathrow Airport. Camille, thank you so much.
