European airports start to reopen for flights

Summary:

All throughout Northern Europe airplanes slowly start to take off again from airports. The inactivity in the European airspace caused by the volcanic ash from Ireland is coming to an end. UK’s air traffic control announced that next Tuesday the main airport in London will reopen and regular schedule flights will be up in the air. The airline Body announced they have over lost over £ 650 million because the airspace was closest for about one week. The UK has deployed three navy warships in order to help pick up stranded passengers from Spain.

My opinion:

The article gave a little bit too much examples about conditions of airports throughout Europe. What I found rather annoying is that the author made sub articles in this article, for example the piece about the warships being deployed which has not much to do with airports reopening again throughout N. Europe. I did find the rest of the article rather interesting since it is a very interesting topic. The volcanic eruption all affects us since no one is able to travel around now by airplane.
