easyJet has cancelled flights to and from London Gatwick during July, August and September and said that around 95% of those passengers affected had already been reaccommodated on other flights
The budget carrier said the number of cancellations roughly represents one day's worth of flights and it will still operate about 90,000 flights during the same period.
A spokesperson for the airline said: "We have therefore made some pre-emptive adjustments to our programme consolidating a small number of flights at Gatwick, where we have multiple daily frequencies, in order to help mitigate these external challenges on the day of travel for our customers. - Customers whose flights are affected are being informed, with 95% of customers being rebooked onto an alternative flight and all customers provided with the option to rebook or receive a refund."
