Overview
- Local outlets using Flightradar24 published itemised departure lists showing numerous delays and some cancellations across Edinburgh, Liverpool, Manchester and Newcastle on June 1–2.
- Manchester saw several higher‑profile cancellations, including Lufthansa flights LH947/LH948 and Brussels Airlines services SN2174/SN2173, with additional TAP Portugal cancellations shown on live boards into June 3.
- The published lists mark delays of more than 20 minutes and can show multiple codeshare numbers for the same physical flight, which can make tracking statuses harder for passengers.
- Passengers experienced late departures and a small number of cancelled services, and local coverage repeatedly advised travellers to confirm flight status directly with their airline or the airport's live information pages.
- Reports document operational disruption during a busy travel period but do not identify a single cause, and coverage notes other European issues such as industrial action in Portugal that can create knock‑on effects for schedules.
