(April 20, 2010) The biggest news in the travel industry is that of the Volcanic ash cloud and its movement. Projections about the movement of this cloud has already brought travel misery to thousands of passengers. This has also resulted in huge losses for the travel industry. On 16-April, almost $200m lper day loss was estimated for the UK airlines industry. However, there are some good news coming in. Britian's national airspace flights bans would be replaced. Now the Britian's sky would be divided into three areas - No-fly zone, Strict condition area and Open-sky area.
The picture below shows the forecast of this ash cloud on 19 April and the affected red zone where there were no flights in the air.
And how are the skies looking like?? This can be interpreted through the next satellite pictures. The two photographs show the reach of the ash cloud over the European region and the Atlantic region. Let us hope that the conditions get better early.
