We anticipate disruption and potential air traffic control delay on 9 August (tomorrow) as airlines work to recover their schedules, so passengers are strongly advised to defer non-essential travel and check the latest flight information on the airline’s website before going to the airport. To ensure passengers receive the latest flight status updates via SMS or e-mail, they are advised to update contact details in “Manage My Booking” at the airline’s website.
