Technical failure in air traffic control cancels hundreds of flights in the United Kingdom

SIC Notícias9 September 2026 at 10:01

A technical failure in the UK's air traffic control system caused the cancellation and delay of hundreds of flights in the country. The problem directly affected passengers who wanted to travel during the period when the malfunction occurred.

The failure was resolved on Tuesday, allowing the gradual resumption of air operations. However, even after the resolution of the technical problem, some constraints continued to be experienced at British airports.

The authorities responsible for air control did not specify the exact cause of the malfunction, but reported that they are working to completely normalize the situation in the coming days.
