Check-ins for TUI and Ryanair have been disrupted on what officials say is the busiest day of the year for the airport
East Midlands Airport has been hit with delays and disruption due to the ongoing global IT outage. A number of flights have currently been delayed and check-ins for TUI and Ryanair have been disrupted on what officials say is the busiest day of the year for the airport.
"The global IT problems are affecting some of our airlines this morning. That means some processes like check-in and boarding are being carried about manually and are taking longer than usual for those airlines. Meanwhile, National Rail have said the impact to their services across the East Midlands is "minimal". With schools breaking up, an estimated 20,000 passengers were due to pass through the airport on Friday.Delays at EMA possible 'later in the day'
"If you have an appointment please do attend unless you are told otherwise. If you need help use 111 online or by phone and in an emergency call 999."Nottingham City Council has confirmed it is not impacted. A spokesperson for the authority confirmed that they've had no issues and that the IT team uninstalled Crowdstrike earlier in the day when the issue came to light. Nottinghamshire Fire and Rescue Service has also said they are not aware of any issues.
