Un fallo técnico en el control del tráfico aéreo de Reino Unido ha provocado más de 400 vuelos cancelados en los principales aeropuertos del país, incluidos los londinenses Heathrow y Gatwick, además de Manchester y Birmingham, mientras que el sistema ha comenzado a recuperarse, según el gestor británico NATS, como recoge Europa Press.

"Hemos implementado una solución y nuestro sistema de vuelos está comenzando a recuperarse. Estamos continuando trabajando estrechamente con nuestros clientes de aerolíneas y aeropuertos en la recuperación", ha señalado en un reciente mensaje en redes sociales.

En su publicación de 'X', la secretaria de Transporte, Heidi Alexander, ha afirmado que es consciente del problema y que los ingenieros lo están "solucionando en estos momentos". "Sé que esto resultará frustrante para los pasajeros y lo siento", ha añadido.

Otros muchos aeródromos han experimentado algunas alteraciones en sus operaciones, tales como el de Jersey, Aberdeen, Glasgow, Southampton, Belfast y Edimburgo, según recoge 'DPA'.

Con datos de Flightradar24, recogidos por Europa Press, un total de 425 vuelos han sido cancelados en la tarde de hoy martes por la incidencia, con especial afectación en easyJet y British Airways, con 137 y 111 movimientos suprimidos, respectivamente, seguido de KLM (26), Eurowings (22) y Ryanair (21).

"Haremos todo lo posible para minimizar el impacto de esta situación en nuestros clientes, lo que incluye ofrecer a los pasajeros de los vuelos que no puedan operar diferentes opciones, como un traslado gratuito o un reembolso, así como comidas y alojamiento en hotel para quienes lo necesiten", ha apuntado easyJet en un comunicado.

Open Questions

  • ?¿Cuál fue la causa técnica exacta del fallo?

Spain needs to promote cross-border trains to gain resilience against energy shocks

Spain faces structural vulnerability due to its poor cross-border rail connectivity, evidenced by the energy crisis derived from the conflict in the Middle East. The article highlights that the Lisbon-Madrid night train (Lusitania) disappeared in 2020 and that train trips are slow and involve transfers, while high-speed European proposals could reduce the Madrid-Lisbon journey to three hours and Madrid-Paris to six. The Spanish Government is urged to get involved in European negotiations to double the railway budget and improve international ticket booking, as tourism represents 13% of GDP and is overly dependent on aviation, making it vulnerable to disruptions in fuel supplies.
