Dawn O’Porter is desperately trying to return to England from Spain after the UK's air traffic control system malfunctioned. The National Air Traffic Services reported that a technical issue had been identified and remedied, yet it has still caused disruption for the nearly one million people due to travel in and out of the UK yesterday.
On Monday afternoon, Dawn took to Instagram to ask for advice. She was travelling back with her two sons, and she was looking for any insight on if there was any chance of landing at Gatwick that day. She was on her own with the kids and didn't want to be stuck at the airport overnight.
Unfortunately, it wasn't to be, and four hours later, Dawn updated her followers that she'd be in Mallorca for a while, due to the "s**t show". She even added a humorous comment about the situation, saying she'd be heading back to the island to find wine.
The problem has affected more than 1,200 flights, and it's expected to last until the weekend. It's an incredibly frustrating situation, as it's compounded by the already busy flights this week as the summer holidays start to draw to a close.
People across the world have been affected by the air traffic control system failure, including BBC Radio 1 DJ Jordan North who was stuck at Malaga airport. He shared an update that they'd ran out of beer at the terminal, which is a devastating turn of events.
It's a situation that Dawn O’Porter and many others won't forget in a hurry. People are stuck in airports all over the world, desperately trying to get home. Hopefully, the National Air Traffic Services will be able to resolve the issue soon.
