Technical Issue Disrupts Flights Across Northern U-K
Posted on 2026-09-21 20:11:14
A technical issue has disrupted flights in and out of Scotland, Northern Ireland and northern England.
British Transport Secretary Heidi Alexander says the problem has been fixed, but its effects are expected to continue throughout the day, with flights canceled or delayed.
NATS - the leading provider of air traffic control in the UK - says the problem occurred at its air traffic control center in Prestwick, Scotland.
Airports south of Manchester are broadly unaffected.
NATS says the disruption is unrelated to a software problem two weeks ago that led to more than 2,000 flight cancellations.
