Quote: Flights have been disrupted across northern Europe by volcanic ash drifting south and east from Iceland. Airspace was closed or flights cancelled in countries including the UK, the Republic of Ireland, Denmark, Norway, Sweden and Finland. The ash, which can damage aeroplane engines, was produced by a volcanic eruption under a glacier in Iceland. Flooding was reported as the glacier melted, and up to 800 people were evacuated from the area on Wednesday. By Thursday morning, the disruption to air traffic stretched from the UK to Scandinavia. 'Wait and see' Airspace was shut down to all but emergency flights from midday to 1800BST (1100-1700 GMT) in the UK. It was also closed in Ireland. "Volcanic ash represents a significant safety threat to aircraft," said the UK's Air Traffic Control Service (Nats). COUNTRIES AFFECTED Airspace closed: UK, Republic of Ireland Partial or planned closures: Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland, Netherlands Oslo airport, which is Norway's largest, was closed, while Finland's airport agency Finavia said air traffic to northern Sweden and northern Finland was also affected. "Flights will be cancelled probably all day with the current prognosis," said Jo Kobro, information manager at Oslo Airport. "Then we have to wait and see what the new weather forecasts will say about the wind direction, and if we are lucky the volcano diminishes in strength." In Denmark, officials said airspace would be closed from 1800 (1600 GMT). The Air Traffic Control Service (Nats) said no flights would be allowed in or out of UK airspace from midday to 1800BST (1100-1700 GMT) amid fears of engine damage. Airports in Scotland had already been shut earlier on Thursday and flights at several English airports had been suspended. There were also reports of major disruption expected in the Netherlands, Germany and Belgium. Road cut off The last volcanic eruption at the Eyjafjallajoekull glacier in south-western Iceland was on 20 March - the first since 1821 - and it forced about 500 people in the sparsely populated area from their homes.

Quote: Independent.ie Volcano fear to ground aircraft for days By Treacy Hogan and Aideen Sheehan Friday April 16 2010 Thousands of air travellers face a week of further chaos as airports were shut down yesterday when a volcanic eruption in Iceland sent a massive plume of ash into the atmosphere. As debris continued to spew from the Eyjafjallajokull volcano, airlines were last night preparing to ground flights for several more days. There was good news for some passengers when the Irish Aviation Authority (IAA) announced last night it was lifting restrictions on flights to and from airports at Cork and Shannon and some of the regional airports. However, as the latest reports from the Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre in London indicated that the ash cloud is still over the east coast, the restrictions will remain in force at Dublin airport until at least 11am today. Aviation authorities warned that the crisis would continue into the weekend and possibly throughout next week if weather conditions changed or more ash spewed out. More than 60,000 passengers are still stuck abroad or are unable to leave Ireland after Irish and UK airports were forced to cancel all flights yesterday. The dust spewed out by the volcano could down aircraft by clogging up the engines and damaging the planes' electronic systems. The vast cloud of ash extends across Ireland, Britain and northeastern Europe. Norway, Finland, Sweden, Denmark and Belgium all cancelled large numbers of flights yesterday. The IAA said the volcano was still active and there was the potential for the shutdown to continue into next week. "If this volcanic ash plume encroaches into our airspace -- and all the signs are that it will tomorrow -- then planes will have to stay on the ground," the IAA spokesman said. "The volcano is still active and the movement of the ash depends on the weather. The indicators are that the weather will remain unchanged for the next few days." The authority has been told by the Volcanic Ash Plan Advisory Centre in London that the plume, which currently measures six by 11 kilometres, is likely to grow today and remain over Northern Europe. Meanwhile, thousands of holidaymakers could be left high and dry by their insurance policies as insurers claim that the volcanic ash was an 'act of God'. Airlines yesterday promised to honour their legal obligations to passengers, including giving them refunds or new flights, food and accommodation, if necessary. However, the insurance industry was pessimistic about people's chances of claiming on travel policies for any additional losses. The Professional Insurance Brokers Association (PIBA) said travel-insurance cover would vary for many travellers. However, the Commission for Aviation Regulation said people whose flights were cancelled or delayed had significant legal rights under EU laws. Irish business chiefs already reeling from the recession are facing another major cash loss because of the airports closure. Met Eireann last night said an anticyclone to the north-west of Ireland was blowing the ash from Iceland towards the south-east of Ireland and these weather conditions were set to continue over the weekend. Cancelled Head of forecasting Gerald Fleming said rain would help scatter the ash cloud's particles -- but predicted the country may not see a drop until next week. "Even for it to be dispersed by wind and rain takes time," he said. "A good stiff westerly wind would help disperse it over eastern Europe, but that's not the weather we have at the moment." As the air-transport crisis worsened overnight, Aer Lingus announced that it was cancelling all of its UK and European flights scheduled to leave Dublin, Cork, Shannon, Belfast, London Gatwick and Heathrow up to 1pm today. Ryanair also cancelled more than 600 flights across Europe today. It will not operate any flights to or from Belgium, Denmark, Finland, Ireland, Sweden or the UK before 1pm today. However, if, as expected, the ash remains in the atmosphere over Irish and UK airspace, the shutdown is expected to continue over the weekend. Among the many passengers stranded overseas were the Irish under-15 soccer team, who played the second of two matches against Holland yesterday. More than 100 flights into and out of Ireland yesterday were cancelled, while some 3,000 were cancelled across Europe. The Government Taskforce on Emergency Planning met yesterday and decided to ground the Dublin and Waterford-based emergency helicopters from night-time flying. The Health Service Executive (HSE) said the plume of ash did not pose a significant health risk. A spokeswoman for Dublin Airport said she had never witnessed such an incident since her career began in the early 1980s. "This is very much out of everyone's control," she said, adding: "I'm sure passengers will appreciate the seriousness of it and will not want to fly in unsafe conditions." Irish ferries said the disruption had sparked near unprecedented demand for sea travel. - Treacy Hogan and Aideen Sheehan SearchQuery: Go ©Independent.ie Sitemap | E-mail sign-up | Contact Us | About Us | Terms & Conditions | Privacy | Advertise with us | Group Websites

Quote: Flights across much of Europe are being cancelled on a second day of massive disruption caused by drifting ash ejected from a volcano in Iceland. Hundreds of thousands of passengers are affected and severe disruption could extend into the weekend, including on flights to North America and Asia. Some 5,000 flights were cancelled on Thursday as airspace from the Republic of Ireland to Finland was closed. The ash is not thought to pose a serious health risk to people however. We can actually smell sulphur in the air here now from the volcano cloud Tim Farish, Oslo Volcanic ash: Your travel stories UK extends air restrictions A guide to Iceland's volcanoes Health officials in Scotland, where the ash was expected to start falling overnight, said the concentration of particles that fell was likely to be low, and effects on people with existing respiratory conditions were "likely to be short term". The UK's Met Office said any ash that did reach ground level would be barely visible. UK restrictions originally in place until 1300 (1200 GMT) on Friday have been extended until at least 1900 (1800 GMT), although some exceptions may be possible in Scotland and Northern Ireland. "In general, the situation cannot be said to be improving with any certainty," said a statement issued by the National Air Traffic Service. 'Progressing very slowly' The European air traffic control organisation, Eurocontrol, said a lack of wind meant the ash cloud created by the volcano underneath Iceland's Eyjafjallajoekull glacier was "progressing very slowly eastwards" and remained "very dense". COUNTRIES AFFECTED Airspace closed: UK Republic of Ireland Norway Denmark Sweden Belgium Netherlands Finland Partial or planned closures: France (northern airspace) Germany (northern airspace) Poland (northern airspace) The UK, Irish Republic, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Belgium and the Netherlands closed their airspace on Thursday. France shut down 24 airports in the north of the country, including the main hub of Paris-Charles de Gaulle, while Germany's Berlin and Hamburg airports were also closed on Thursday evening. Frankfurt closed on Friday morning. Qantas, Japan Airlines, Korean Air, Singapore Airlines and Cathay Pacific were among long-haul airlines who have cancelled flights to Europe. "Our personal view is it may take until Sunday" for flights to resume, said Qantas spokesman David Epstein. If the disruption persists, there are fears in Poland that some world leaders will be unable to attend Sunday's state funeral of Polish President Lech Kaczynski, who was killed in a plane crash last Saturday. Several European monarchs were unable to attend 70th birthday celebrations for Denmark's Queen Margrethe, which began with a concert on Thursday. For want of a plane, Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt was known to be driving home to Sweden from Brussels, the Associated Press news agency reports. 'Days or weeks' The volcano began erupting on Wednesday for the second time in a month, hurling a plume of ash 11km (seven miles) into the atmosphere. A 500m-wide fissure appeared at the top of the crater.
