The CAA has lifted the no-fly zone that has been affecting flights at Heathrow and Gatwick until 1900 (local time) today. The decision comes following further information from the Met Office about the density and location of the ash cloud. There are no restrictions at airports in Northern Ireland, England or Wales during this period.
From 1300 -1900 the no-fly zone remains in place only in the Orkney and Shetland Islands.
Kuoni Operations are in the process of re-booking anyone impacted so far by a cancelled flight from UK.
Please check the status of your flight by referring to the relevant airlines and airport websites before travelling to the airport.
