British flights delayed by control issues

Airports in the United Kingdom, including Manchester, Glasgow, and Belfast, experienced a failure in the air traffic control system, leading to delays and cancellations of many flights, particularly at Heathrow and London City airports. NATS stated that the issue was linked to the Prestwick control center in Scotland and has been resolved, with systems gradually returning to normal operation. However, the malfunction, which caused delays for approximately 25,000 travelers, raises concerns about the system's resilience to repeated failures, especially following a previous crisis in August 2023 that resulted in the cancellation of around 2,000 flights and losses exceeding £100 million for airlines.
