"We are sorry for any inconvenience for affected customers.”

British Airways

British Airways has cancelled more than 100 flights, but these were cancelled in advance as part of their schedule reduction until October.

The flag carrier confirmed that 16,000 flights between March and October would be cancelled to prevent short-notice cancellations.

Domestic flights affected include a number of routes across Scotland, as well as Manchester and Newcastle.

Many Europe destinations have been affected as well.

In the last week, 538 flights leaving the UK have been cancelled, says data firm Cirium.

A further two million passengers are due to fly on 10,800 flights over the Jubilee Bank Holiday but they face more late cancellations.

The aviation industry estimates more than four millions jobs have been lost since the start of the pandemic.
