Air Traffic Control system update

28 August 2023

Statement at 12:40 UK time

We are continuing to work hard to resolve the technical issue. To clarify, UK airspace is not closed, we have had to apply air traffic flow restrictions which ensures we can maintain safety.

Statement at 12:10 UK time

We are currently experiencing a technical issue and have applied traffic flow restrictions to maintain safety.
Engineers are working to find and fix the fault.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

Please check with your airline on the status of your flight. We will provide updates on www.nats.aero for the latest news and on X – @NATS.
The airspace is not 'closed'. I suppose the wave of TATLs will avoid UK/GB airspace...
