South African Airways (SAA) has cancelled all of its flights between South Africa, London, Frankfurt and Munich scheduled to have departed on Tuesday.
The following flights were cancelled on Tuesday:
From South Africa:
- SA234 Johannesburg to London
From the United Kingdom:
- SA235 London to Johannesburg
From Europe:
- SA261 Frankfurt to Johannesburg
SAA said it is monitoring the situation in conjunction with European Air Traffic and will resume operations between South African, the UK and Europe as soon as conditions are deemed safe for air travel.
Ash from an Icelandic volcano has caused air traffic chaos in the UK and Europe, causing the cancellation of flights, adding further pressure to the already beleaguered airlines. — I-Net Bridge
