The Grimsvotn volcano in Iceland erupted on Saturday 21st May and the ash cloud is expected to reach Northern Ireland, Scotland and Northern England by the early hours of Tuesday morning. It does not necessarily mean that airports will close but airlines may take the decision not to fly, therefore flight disruption is a possibility.
As a result, easyJet have cancelled all flights between Belfast International to both Glasgow and Edinburgh airports between 05:00 and 09:00 on Tuesday 24th May. For further information visit www.easyjet.com
The Jet2.com 07:00 departure to Leeds Bradford and the 09:30 arrival from Leeds Bradford have both been cancelled. For further information visit www.jet2.com
Passengers who are due to travel on Tuesday 24th May should continue to check the status of their flight with their airline before travelling to the airport. All flight queries should be directed to your airline or tour operator.
