Big Snow Blocked Lunton Airport and Caused Chaos

Big snow has forced Lunton Airport to close and brought chaos to people's christmas plans. As the snow keeps falling, the budget airline easyJet cancelled more than 150 flights.

According to the Times, British Airways and the Irish carrier Ryanair also warned of delays and cancellations due to the heavy snow and freezing temperatures, which have already caused chaos on the roads and forced the suspension of Eurostar train services through the Channel Tunnel.

“EasyJet sincerely apologises to those who have been affected by the disruption caused by such exceptional circumstances, and would like to reassure passengers the airline is doing everything possible to minimise the delays and cancellations and get them to their destination as soon as possible,” the airline said.

Besides planes, bus are also blocked on the way to the airport. Lots of passengers are forced to stand in the snow to queue for the bus and leave the airport.

Many passengers have given up the christmas plans for the severe weather.
