Re: Is my flight to Paris going to be canceled?
Posted 30 January 2011
Airport authorities are reviewing the situation on an hourly basis and any reopening will be determined by experts who will assess the path of the ash cloud, wind direction, cloud height, etc. I would contact your airline and ask if they will have a backlog of passengers to clear and, based on whether or not the airport is open, if your flight will go ahead and, if you will be able to fly. Currently there are very few flights in the air over Europe and the domino effect will take place once they do reopen - but that date is not known as it depends on the movement of the cloud and any perceived hazard to aviation. Contact your carrier for more flight information.
