Airlines continue to cancel flights as travel secretary says industry must solve labour shortages.
Airlines including Easyjet and Wizz Air have cancelled dozens of flights as UK air travel disruption continues.Transport Secretary Grant Shapps told the BBC the aviation industry cut too many jobs during the coronavirus pandemic and it must not oversell flights.What are my rights if my flight is cancelled?
"We are very sorry and fully understand the disruption this will have caused for our customers," the airline said, adding it was doing everything possible to get passengers to their destinations. "Airlines should be cautious about not overselling those flights, [and] where there are problems they need to fix them quickly."
Mr Shapps said he wanted a similar system to "Delay Repay" train passenger refunds "where it's an automated process". However, London Mayor Sadiq Khan said airport jobs should be opened up to people from the European Union, who were doing those jobs before Brexit and the Covid pandemic.
